Item description from seller

(Subject: Regimental & Unit Histories - Famous Regiments) Raised in 1775, the Marine Corps has served in all of America's overseas wars since then. They fought on the Union side in the Civil War. Amongst other conflicts they have seen action in the War of Independence, the Mexican and Spanish American Wars, Panama, China and the Philippines, and on the Western Front in the Great War. With the other Allies they ventured into Northern Russia in 1918 to support the White Russians against the Bolsheviks and, between the World Wars, they served far and wide protecting America's interests. In WWII their exploits in the Pacific were legendary. Actions in Korea and Vietnam bring their story up to the 1970s (Published: 1974) (Publisher: Leo Cooper) (ISBN: 0850521769) (Pagination: 184pp, 55 ills, bibliography) (Condition: Good in discoloured dw.

Seller's business information

Military History Books

United Kingdom

Military History Books was founded many years ago in London and, several iterations later, it's now in the capable and expert hands of Armed Forces Veterans based in the sunny South-West of England. The 7,000+ book inventory will be available on AbeBooks early in 2025 and one of the first tasks will be to append photographs and full descriptions to as many of the listings as possible; a huge task, as we're sure you'll agree.

Operating from a large, temperature and humidity controlled building, we don't just sell books but also Magazines (mainly Aviation & Modelling) and Technical Publications. Obviously, the more we sell, the more we have to replace, so if you find yourself with a surplus quantity of titles of a military nature (and that covers all 3 Services throughout the world (plus 'Space', come to think of it!); get in touch and talk to us.

We look forward to being of service.
