Add to basketHard Back. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Binding is black cloth with gilt lettering on the spine; 280 pages. "This is a book about the experience of combat, by men who have been there. It is a book about danger and courage. Both are shown in many forms: whether braving enemy fire to storm an enemy-held beach; mai…ntaining the frozen vigil of the tail gunner; or the nerve-jangling tension of jungle ambushes. It is also a book about comradeship and duty - the special bond with other members of an infantry platoon or the crew of a tank, ship or aircraft. Included are thirty-two accounts of combat on land, sea and air, from World War II to Desert Storm, which stand as a tribute to the countless others whose stories will never be told." Size: 9 1/2" x 6 1/2". Book.
