Paperback in Very Good condition. Looks unread.
In May, 1944, the author was a U.S. Marine sergeant and war correspondent with the 3rd Marine Division, leaving Guadalcanal for Guam. This narrative of the ensuing months follows Josephy through the the Guamanian jungle, and on into the teeth of one of the bloodiest assaults in all warfare -- Iwo Jima. This is a supremely vivid and spellbinding account of one of the most famous chapters in military history.
