Paperback. New. Paperback. Each year, the Commandant of the U. S. Marine Corps selects one book that he believes is both relevant and timeless for reading by all Marines. The Commandants choice for 1993 was We Were Soldiers Once . . . and Young. In November 1965, some 450 men of the 1st Battalion, 7th Cavalry, under the command of Lt. Col. Hal Moore, were dropped by helicopter into a small clearing in the Ia Drang Valley. They were immediately surrounded by 2, 000 North Vietnamese soldiers. Three days later, only two and a half miles away, a sister battalion was chopped to pieces. Together, these actions at the landing zones X-Ray and Albany constituted one of the most savage and significant battles of the Vietnam War. How these men persevered--sacrificed themselves for their comrades and never gave up--makes a vivid portrait of war at its most inspiring and devastating. General Moore and Joseph Galloway, the only journalist on the ground throughout the fighting, have interviewed hundreds of men who fought there, including the North Vietnamese commanders. This devastating account rises above the specific ordeal it chronicles to present a picture of men facing the ultimate challenge, dealing with it in ways they would have found unimaginable only a few hours earlier. It reveals to us, as rarely before, mans most heroic and horrendous endeavor. From the Hardcover edition. This item ships from multiple locations.

He’s on an off-the-grid quest to track down a rogue ex-partner who hunts paranormal beings for the joy of the kill. Convincing the unexpectedly feisty Jackie to trust him isn’t easy, but there’s no better way to lure the hunter into the open than to dangle as unique a target as Jackiethe last Tasmanian Tiger shifter in existence.

Hardcover. 0246107405 Editorial Reviews\n\nProduct Description\nA searing novel from a writer of international stature, The Devil Tree is a tale that combines the existential emptiness of Camus's The Stranger with the universe of international playboys, violence, and murder of Patricia Highsmith's The Talented Mr. Ripley. Jonathan Whalen's life has been determined from the start by the immense fortune of his father, a steel tycoon. Whalen's childlike delight in power and status mask a greater need, a desire to feel life intensely, through drugs, violence, sex, and attempts at meaningful connection with other people -- whether lovers or the memory of his dead parents. But the physical is all that feels real to him, and as he embarks on a journey to Africa with his godparents, Whalen's embrace of amoral thrill accelerates toward ultimate fulfillment. Now in a Grove Press paperback, Kosinski's classic, acclaimed as an impressive novel ... it should confirm Jerzy Kosinki's position as one of our most significant writers -- Newsweek Savage ... [Whalen is] a foolproof, timeless American character. -- Mary Ellin Barrett, Cosmopolitan --This text refers to the Paperback edition. . Good., HarperCollins Distribution Services, Consider the following: The United States is engaged in what some political and media leaders call an immoral war, a war that did not have to be fought. After a relatively easy initial conquest, the US Army finds itself faced with armed resistance to US occupation. US strategic goals have changed since the war began; domestic political opposition increases as insurgent activities prolong the war. Insurgent leaders monitor US domestic politics and adjust their strategy accordingly. US Army Soldiers adapt to the uncertainty and employ novel techniques to complex military and nonmilitary problems in a land where they are strangers and about which they have little understanding. Does this sound familiar? It should, but this description does not depict events from 2003 to 2007 in the Middle Eastit describes events from 1898 to 1902 in the Philippines. Combat Studies Institute (CSI) is pleased to publish its 24th Long War Series Occasional Paper, Savage Wars of Peace: Case Studies of Pacification in the Philippines, 19001902, by CSI historian Robert Ramsey. In it he analyzes case studies from two key Philippine military districts and highlights several themes that are relevant to todays ongoing operations in the Long War. Between 1899 and 1902 the US Army was successful in defeating Filipino resistance to American occupation using what military leaders at the time called a combination of attraction and coercion. However, success came only after initial setbacks, disappointments, and significant changes in leadership, military strategy, and political adaptation. In the two regions of the Luzon Island analyzed in this occasional paper, Army leaders employed a mix of political and economic incentives, combined with military actions and strict martial law to subdue the resistance. The geographic isolation of the insurrectos on the Philippine archipelago was also an advantage for US forces. The capture of key insurrecto leaders provided critical intelligence, and their post-capture pledge of support for the new government helped break the resistance by 1902. This work highlights, among many other themes, the importance of perseverance, adaptability, and cultural understanding. Written at the request of the Command and General Staff College for use in their curriculum, we believe this occasional paper will be a valuable addition to the professional development of all Army leaders.~ Weight:0.54 lbs, CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, 6/29/2012 0:00:00, Pilgrims Book House Pilgrims Books , 2004. softcover.

In this book the author recaptures the lives of the great American bare-knuckle champions, describing not only their fights but also the street culture that supported the ring. Tom Molineaux, a black American who almost won the championship of England; John Morrissey, a poor Irish immigrant who rose from street brawler to congressman; Tom McCoy, the first man to lose his life in the American ring; James Sullivan, a champion who died at the hands of California vigilantes; and the incomparable John L. Sullivan, America's greatest sports hero of the 19th -- all are vividly portrayed in their Victorian world of saloons and sporting houses. Here are riveting accounts of their illegal bare-fisted prize fights, held in backrooms, in secluded meadows, and on barges. Seeking to understand the significance of this violent yet compelling sport, Gorn probes its history and reveals how boxing's popularity rose during America's change to an urban-industrial society. Bare-knuckle fighting dramatized the divisions between Irish and Anglo-Americans, the working and the middle classes, men and women, sinners and Christians. Respectable citizens abhorred the culture of the ring for its savage revelry, yet working men of the city streets found in boxing an expression of their own way of life which centered on prowess, bravado, and honor. Gorn concludes his colorful narrative by tracing prize fighting's rise to respectability in the late 19th century from an illicit folk pastime of the urban underground. Illustrated with 26 photographs and drawings.

India's declaration of independence on 15 August 1947 was one of the most momentous occasions of twentieth-century history. For Britain it meant the end of the Raj, of more than 200 years of rule; for the army of British expatriates - civil servants, soldiers and businessmen - it meant the end of a way of life; and for millions of Indians it meant t time of enormous social and political upheaval. In this challenging new book, the author takes a look at the last days of the British in India, and explores the attitudes and events of that momentous period. Through the voices and memories of both the British and the Indians, the author recreates the drama and tension of the years leading up to and following independence: the way of life the sahibs and their mems enjoyed - from the lofty mandarins of the Indian Poltical Service to the lowliest box-wallah; the changing political climate of the 1930s when the influence of Gandhi was at its height; the impact of war and the threat of Japanese invasion; the appointment of Mountbatten as viceroy and the countdown to independence, which was marred by savage massacres in the Punjab as Hindu and Muslim turned on each other. Comnbining historical narrative and interviews with both British and Indian who lived through those turbulent years, this book welds their impressions, emotions and anecdotes into a fascinating social history, a unique portrait of one of the most significant periods in British history.

Here are riveting accounts of their illegal bare-fisted prize fights, held in backrooms, in secluded meadows, and on barges. Seeking to understand the significance of this violent yet compelling sport, Gorn probes its history and reveals how boxing's popularity rose during America's change to an urban-industrial society. Bare-knuckle fighting dramatized the divisions between Irish and Anglo-Americans, the working and the middle classes, men and women, sinners and Christians. Respectable citizens abhorred the culture of the ring for its savage revelry, yet working men of the city streets found in boxing an expression of their own way of life which centered on prowess, bravado, and honor. Gorn concludes his colorful narrative by tracing prize fighting's rise to respectability in the late 19th century from an illicit folk pastime of the urban underground. Illustrated with 26 photographs and drawings.

India's declaration of independence on 15 August 1947 was one of the most momentous occasions of twentieth-century history. For Britain it meant the end of the Raj, of more than 200 years of rule; for the army of British expatriates - civil servants, soldiers and businessmen - it meant the end of a way of life; and for millions of Indians it meant t time of enormous social and political upheaval. In this challenging new book, the author takes a look at the last days of the British in India, and explores the attitudes and events of that momentous period. Through the voices and memories of both the British and the Indians, the author recreates the drama and tension of the years leading up to and following independence: the way of life the sahibs and their mems enjoyed - from the lofty mandarins of the Indian Poltical Service to the lowliest box-wallah; the changing political climate of the 1930s when the influence of Gandhi was at its height; the impact of war and the threat of Japanese invasion; the appointment of Mountbatten as viceroy and the countdown to independence, which was marred by savage massacres in the Punjab as Hindu and Muslim turned on each other. Comnbining historical narrative and interviews with both British and Indian who lived through those turbulent years, this book welds their impressions, emotions and anecdotes into a fascinating social history, a unique portrait of one of the most significant periods in British history.

Although he has often been portrayed as a Robin Hood of the old west, in this ground-breaking work Stiles places James within the context of the bloody conflicts of the Civil War to reveal a much more complicated and significant figure. Raised in a fiercely pro-slavery household in bitterly divided Misssouri, at age sixteen James became a bushwhacker, one of the savage Confederate guerrillas that terrorized the border states. After the end of the war, James continued his campaign of robbery and murder into the brutal era of reconstruction, when his reckless daring, his partisan pronouncements, and his alliance with the sympathetic editor John Newman Edwards placed him squarely at the forefront of the former Confederates bid to recapture political power. With meticulous research and vivid accounts of the dramatic adventures of the famous gunman, T. J.
