Seller's Description:
Fine in Fine jacket. 6 x 1 x 9 inches. pp. 240. Clean, tight. Unmarked. Jacket in new mylar cover. Illustrated with maps and 8 pages of photographs. Detailed account of US Marine Corps activities in Nicaragua in 1912, 1926 and during recurring operations to counter rebel leader Augusto Sandino lasting into the 1930s. These were small unit operations and patrols, led by junior officers or NCOs with a handful of Marine aircraft providing an early form of air support for the far-flung detachments, often performing heroic rescue and resupply flights at great risk. More often than not it was superior Marine Corps marksmanship and discipline that prevailed over the much larger guerrilla units in desperate, hard-fought encounters. // Shipped carefully packed in a sturdy box.
