作者: 半日光辉 时间: 2008-5-21 10:46 标题: 中文好书推荐－企业号1942

这是本翻译图书，前几年出版的五星上将系列，从版式来看，应该是Osprey系列的军事小册子。' O1 u2 k+ P3 W& w' ^7 Y0 z' E1 o
这本书很薄，一晚上就能看完，不过内容却很详细，对企业号在1942年的战斗历程的描写非常详细并且到位。
难得是，本书翻译的十分出色，几乎没有任何不符习惯的地方，所有的翻译，从军舰，飞机的名称，到日军指挥官和飞行员的名字，包括一些美军中的俚语，都翻译的相当到位，看起来非常舒服。很多细节的翻译也非常符合我们的阅读习惯，成语用的很恰当，可谓是“信，达雅”之典范。另外本书印刷质量也不错，胶版纸内页比较厚重，彩图为铜版纸，原价10元，我是在网上用7。5元买到的，感觉非常超值。
这本书如果有缺点，就是封面的图片细看起来画的不太好，关于中途岛海战中俯冲的油画有好多，这本书恰恰选了个最丑的当封面。

前景不错，钱景不发表看法。这书估计也是盗版。

文字没有细看，图片介绍基本相同。不过我倒是觉得这个网站的内容来自osprey的原版图书的可能性更大，中文书来自这个网站是不可能的，网页图片那么小是无法印刷的。4 B6 P: }3 f2 k

Midway: Legend & Fact ) ?% i0 I1 X$ @" f! \4 T% C/ w. {1 w
"History is always written wrong, and so always needs to be rewritten." ! q+ c ^3 S B# \: i5 D
- George Santayana . ~# [3 Z* a/ S
It has been many years since the long-standing Western version of the Battle of Midway has been challenged. With the publication of "Shattered Sword" in late 2005, a Midway account authored by Westerners but told from the Japanese point of view and strongly supported by Japanese primary sources, the battle has been cast in a new light.
Some may find the new portrayal discomforting. "Shattered Sword" dismisses the fondly-held belief that the American victory at Midway resulted from sheer luck and divine intervention. It deflates the image of dive bombers saving the day, striking just as enemy was about to launch a devastating attack. It paints Japan's carrier striking force, the Kido Butai, as having significant weaknesses in its defensive capabilities. It compels the reader to question just why they thought they knew what happened at Midway.
The most perplexing question raised by "Shattered Sword" is why Western writers repeatedly included highly questionable statements in account after account, despite clues in Western sources that suggested major inconsistencies in the traditional telling. + h! I0 ~2 T8 C
For example, why did so many accounts depict armed planes packed on the decks of the Kido Butai when the USN dive bombers attacked, though seasoned observers such as VB-6 commander Dick Best reported exactly the opposite? Why did few question the assumption that the Aleutians operation was intended to lure the US fleet out of Hawaii ... when it was timed to start only a day before the main Midway operation, hardly giving the US fleet time to get underway? # H* g& T* Z5 m, k7 U
Explanations range from limited access to Japanese materials, to intentional distortions in available Japanese sources (particularly Fuchida's "Midway: The Battle That Doomed Japan"), to insufficient skepticism on the part of Western researchers. This writer is one of many who have been forced to reevaluate their account - and the methods that produced that account - in light of "Shattered Sword".
After reading "Shattered Sword", other titles such as "Miracle at Midway" and "Incredible Victory" lose some of their allure. Midway - the battle - does not, however. The US victory may not have been a miracle, but that only increases its significance. The lopsided results were the result of carrier doctrine developed over twenty years of trial and error, the cool application of basic military theory, and the willingness of many, many pilots to accept poor odds of survival for the opportunity to do what they'd been trained to do. Japan suffered from poor strategy, relatively inefficient operational practices, and inadequate air defense and command systems that were overwhelmed by relentless American attacks.
"Shattered Sword" puts the credit, and the blame, for the outcome where it belongs: with those who planned and fought the battle, not with fate or fickle luck. And it reminds us that we only ever know part of the story. To remain intellectually honest we must be willing to admit the evidence that says we were wrong. 7 d' z3 u' r; U; p. L+ w
