This book takes facts about those who served on the "Aaron Ward" and incorporates them in narrative as if they were fiction. The result is 211 pages of local color and 52 pages about what befell the ship off Okinawa. The author portrays relationships and the ship's culture, but a less tedious strategy would have sailors tell their own stories. A tribute to brave men on a brave ship, but in a form where prelude overpowers battle.
