Midway
by
Donald S. Sanford
A Bantam Book
June 1976
Midway (1976) was much anticipated by this military brat. I picked up that film's tie-in novelization at CFB Borden's PX (Post Exchange) as soon as it hit the stands, which was before the flick was released. I never ran out to see it: my guess is reading the book didn't prompt me to then see Midway the movie when that side of the story hit the big screen — at Borden's "Terra Theatre". Interesting note: a buddy of mine decided not to buy the book when he realized it wasn't a historical recounting of The Battle of Midway, but a novelization, with "the movie's dialogue" and such.
Midway was an easy enough read. I still have not seen Midway.
