Review title: Hitting the Beach
Product review: I first read this book in the late 1950s as a teenager and liked it quite a lot. Re-reading it recently, I found that I liked it even better. I was mildly surprised at how many passages were exactly as I remembered them. They were so well written that they burned themselves into my memory quite naturally. Dodson is quite a graphic writer and as a result all his characters effortlessly come to life. His story is dramatic without being overplayed. What was best from my point of view is that his descriptions of naval equipment and procedures seemed to be taken directly off the reality. This book is an unrecognized gem. If you have any interest in World War II naval combat, don't pass up a chance to read it.
