David C. Evans holds a Ph.D. in Asian history from Stanford University. He was a professor of history and associate dean of the School of Arts and Sciences at the University of Richmond. Mark R. Peattie (born May 3, 1930, died January 22, 2014) was an American academic and Japanologist. Peattie was a specialist in modern Japanese military, naval, and imperial history. Years of painstaking research and analysis of previously untapped Japanese-language resources have produced this remarkable study of the navy's dizzying development, tactical triumphs, and humiliating defeat. Unrivaled in its breadth of coverage and attention to detail, this important new history explores the foreign and indigenous influences on the navy's thinking about naval warfare and how to plan for it.
