Samuel Lyman Atwood Marshall (July 18, 1900 - December 17, 1977) was a chief U.S. Army combat historian during World War II and the Korean War. Known professionally as S. L. A. Marshall, and nicknamed "Slam" (the combination of all four of his initials), he authored some 30 books about warfare, including Pork Chop Hill: The American Fighting Man in Action, which was made into a film of the same name. The Six-Day War was fought between 5 and 10 June 1967 by Israel and the states of Egypt, Jordan, and Syria. In May Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser announced that the straits would be closed to Israeli vessels and then mobilized its Egyptian forces along its border with Israel. On 5 June, Israel launched what it claimed were a series of preemptive airstrikes against Egyptian airfields. The Egyptians were caught by surprise, and nearly the entire Egyptian air force was destroyed with few Israeli losses, giving the Israelis air supremacy. Simultaneously, the Israelis launched a ground offensive into the Gaza Strip and the Sinai, which again caught the Egyptians by surprise. After some initial resistance, Egyptian leader Gamal Abdel Nasser ordered the evacuation of the Sinai. Israeli forces rushed westward in pursuit of the Egyptians, inflicted heavy losses, and conquered the Sinai. Herbert S. Bost (Maps) (illustrator).…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "The Seven Voyages of Sindbad the Sailor" is a definitive masterpiece of Middle Eastern folklore and adventure literature. Derived from the legendary "One Thousand and One Nights", these tales recount the perilous maritime journeys of Sindbad, a courageous merchant from Baghdad who explores the far reaches of the known and unknown world. Across seven distinct expeditions, Sindbad faces a series of fantastic challenges, ranging from encounters with the gargantuan Roc and giant serpents to the malevolent Old Man of the Sea.Each narrative serves as a vibrant exploration of human endurance and curiosity, blending elements of fantasy, travelogue, and morality. The work has captivated readers for centuries with its vivid descriptions of exotic lands and its imaginative portrayal of the supernatural. As one of the most enduring figures in world literature, Sindbad represents the quintessential explorer whose exploits have left an indelible mark on the global literary canon and popular culture.
