A good coverage of the US Marines in the Vietnam War. It covers the higher commands better than the experience of the average marine, which I think is fine but it might not be what someone expects from an illustrated history. My major gripe with this book was it's many tiny maps, which often did not mention the places talked about in the text. It would have been much better if we had a few larger maps that could be read with ease. ( )

A compelling tribute to the United States Marine Corps from the Marine Corps Heritage Foundation. This comprehensive chronology examines the Corps history in synch with that of The United States. Includes over 600 moving, full-color photographs alongside insightful text from renowned service men.
