Once a Marine: The Memoirs of General A. A.… door A. A. Vandegrift
These memoirs were well-written and extremely influential for the research of my GCMH paper on logistics at Guadalcanal while I was at the NWC. Perhaps my most cited reference, his detailed recollections of the battle and the events leading up to it were incredible. Highly recommended.
