  • Great portrayal of Marine Corp lore of renewed relevance

    Book is out of print now, which I find odd because of the heavily attention and praise being garnered by the Marine Corps Small Wars Manual of 1940; the text of which is forged by the experiences detailed by Clark---combat readiness all the way down to the rank of private. To my knowledge, no other book written by a Marine is singularly focused on the Banana Wars despite the great legend of Marines who were trialed in combat in these conflicts. Perhaps the (interwar) context of the Small Wars Manual, for all of its doctrinal contribution, is one preferred forgotten when hedged against the easily articulated righteousness of Belleau Wood or Guadalcanal. Nonetheless, given the nature of our current terrorist enemy, the bandits of Clark's telling seem not dissimilar.

  • An outstanding book on the USMC actions in Banana War era Nicaragua

    This book tells the story of the Marine Corps involvement in Nicaragua during the Banana War era. Many Marine legends and their daring deeds are found here. The author takes one back to the historical time frame and recounts the events as they unraveled. This is not a book about politics determining wether or not we should have been there but rather the every day events of individual Marines called upon to do a difficult job in a difficult environment. Much of what was learned was later used in the Corps Small Wars manual. I have yet to be dissappointed by any of the authors books.
