Iwo Jima
Portrait of a Battle
Hammel. More than 500 remarkable photographs - over 300 of which have never
before been published - taken by Marine Corps combat photographers recreate
the iconic Battle of Iwo Jima as it happened: the pummeling of inland
targets, the strafing, and the rocket fire that accompanied the landing; the
eerie silence that greeted the Marines as they set foot on the island; and
then, as the newly-landed Marines regrouped on the shoreline, the horrors of
all hell breaking loose. All together, it is a uniquely fitting tribute to
the valiant struggle that gave us our most enduring image of victory and a
classic military history of the Marines in World War II. 256 pages, 10˝"x
12", hardcover.
