Title: The U.S. Navy in the Vietnam War. An illustrated history.
Description: Washington Brassey's 2002 Softcover, 416pp., 23x28cm., richly illustr. in b/w., some ills. in col., in very good condition (remainder marking at the bottom, covers with light traces of use, interior in verry good condition). ISBN 9781574884371. Edward J. Marolda skillfully blends superb research and writing with an excellent mix of photographs and combat art depicting Navy ships, aircraft, facilities, and especially people. As one reviewer wrote, It documents a valiant, dedicated and professional performance by our Navy and Marine Corps warriors, and it is hard not mentally to contrast this performance with the bumbling and inept management of the war by the politicians. Much more than a coffee-table book, this volume is a tribute to the men and women who served in America's longest war.
