Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. 1st Edition. First Simon & Schuster hardcover edition. ; 1st printing ; ix, 305 pages : illustrations ; 25 cm ; ISBN 9781451659139, 9781451659146, 9781451659153, 145165913X, 1451659148, 1451659156 ; OCLC 759912915 ; LCCN ; black cloth in photographic dustjacket ; In w…hat may be the last memoir to be published by a living veteran of the pivotal invasion of Guadalcanal, which occurred almost seventy years ago, Marine Jim McEnery has teamed up with author Bill Sloan to create an unforgettable chronicle of heroism and horror. McErery's Rifle Company-the legendary K/3/5 of the First Marine Division, made famous by the HBO miniseries The Pacific-fought in some of the most ferocious battles of the war. In searing detail, the author takes us back to Guadalcanal, where American forces first turned the tide against the Japanese; Cape Gloucester, where 1,300 Marines were killed or wounded; and bloody Peleliu, where McEnery assumed command of the company and helped hasten the final defeat of the Japanese garrison after weeks of torturous cave-to-cave fighting. McEnery's story is a no-holds-barred, grunt's-eye view of the sacrifices, suffering, and raw courage of the men in the foxholes, locked in mortal combat with an implacable enemy sworn to fight to the death. From bayonet charges and hand-to-hand combat to midnight banzai attacks and the loss of close buddies, the rifle squad leader spares no details, chronicling his odyssey from boot camp through twenty-eight months of hellish combat until his eventual return home. He has given us an unforgettable portrait of men at war. ; Jim McEnery served in the 1st Marine Division's famed K-3-5 rifle company in World War II and fought in three major campaigns against the Japanese. After the war, he moved to New Jersey and worked at Rutgers University until retirement. He passed away in September 2012.; Bill Sloan is a respected military historian and author of more than a dozen books, including Brotherhood of Heroes: The Ultimate Battle. He lives in Dallas, Texas.; ents: A nice day for a boat ride -- Always a Marine at heart -- Disaster at sea, slaughter ashore -- Bushido takes a beating -- Japan's offensive hits a wall -- "We've got the bastards licked" -- Red mud, red blood, green hell -- The crab and coconut wars -- Peleliu, "A terrible mistake" -- The worst nightmare yet -- Going back to the real world. ; ConFINE/FINE.
