| Summary, etc. | "A Magnificent Fight: Marines in the Battle for Wake Island" by Robert J. Cressman is a historical account written in the 21st century. This work narrates the events surrounding the Battle of Wake Island during World War II, focusing on the courageous efforts of U.S. Marines in their desperate defense against overwhelming enemy forces. It highlights the actions of key figures such as Major James P. S. Devereux and Commander Winfield S. Cunningham as they lead their troops during critical moments of the battle. The opening of the book sets the stage on December 8, 1941, as the Marines at Wake Island prepare for an impending attack following the raid on Pearl Harbor. The initial alarm signals the onset of fierce combat, with the defenders quickly mobilizing their weapons and manpower in anticipation of enemy bombers. The narrative introduces various characters, including Major Devereux, who swiftly organizes his battalion, and Captain Hentry T. Elrod, who works to ready aircraft for defense. As Japanese planes approach and begin their attacks, the Marines rise to the occasion, showcasing their bravery and strategic responses amidst chaos, setting the tone for a dramatic and harrowing battle for survival.
