Bøger af Robert S. Burrell

In February 1945, some 80,000 US Marines attacked the heavily defended fortress that the Japanese had constructed on the tiny Pacific island of Iwo Jima. At the cost of 28,000 American casualties, the 3rd, 4th, and 5th Marine Divisions dutifully conquered this desolate piece of hell. Captain Robert S. Burrell masterfully reconsiders the costs of taking Iwo Jima and its role in the war effort.
