Why Marines Fight by James Brady
United States marines have been, for more than two centuries, among the world's deadliest, most admired of warriors. Now comes a thrilling new book, pounding and magnificent in scope, by an author some consider the unofficial "poet laureate" of the Corps, James Brady.Brady talks with and profiles combat Marines from World War II through Iraq, a U.S. Senator, a N.Y. Yankee turned fighter pilot, a Chicago fireman, a one-eyed teacher, a police commissioner, a Harvard footballer, a cop, a New Mexico rancher.Their words, unique and powerful, are crafted into an authentically American story of the country at war, of its warriors in their first and deadliest fire fights, those who came home and some who never would. This is a book of weight and heft that Marines and Americans everywhere will want to read, and find impossible to forget.| SKU | Nicht verfügbar |
