We all owe a huge debt of gratitude to MAM member jim3692 for this excellent conversion. He took it from Library to scan to conversion to proofreading. All Thanks and points should go to him.This is a great book. I read it years ago and am looking forward to reading it again. All of man's glory and bravery is embedded in these pages: Alamo, Rorke's Drift, Camerone, Wake Island, Tarawa, and many more. More amazing that any fiction you've ever read. HIGHLY recommended.---------------------------------------------------------------
