I provides an insight to the unfortunate fleet that was virtually casted aside by the USN at the beginning of WWII, forgotten by most of their own countrymen, and left in the war zone waiting to be annihilated by a vastly more powerful and ruthless enemy. Outnumbered and outgunned, they perished but not without a fight. Yet it is amazing that their sheer existence was ignored and not recognised by the USN for almost half a decade after the war. That could be why the author named it as "The Fleet the Gods Forgot". Reading it could break some hearts especially for those whose loved ones perished on board those sunken ships.
The author worked from actual accounts of survivors to be extremely accurate and historical.
