2.Bravo for the Marshallese: Regaining Control in a Post-Nuclear, Post-Colonial World (Case Studies on Contemporary Social Issues)Bravo for the Marshallese: Regaining Control in a Post-Nuclear, Post-Colonial World (Case Studies on Contemporary Social Issues)
from Wadsworth Publishing
Price: $30.00

Customer Review:
What could have been a change-making ethnography is instead an error filled and one sided rant. Barker makes several glaring factual errors that a good editor should have caught, not the readers. She is so clearly biased in favor of the Marshallese (who admittedly were wronged) that she fails to... more info

"Tarawa and the Marshalls: A Pictorial Tribute", by Eric Hammel, lives up to the sub-title - the book offers many never before published pictures from Marine Corps History.

from Osprey Publishing
Price: $12.95

Customer Review:
This is one operation that I haven't read much about prior to this book so I learned quite a bit. According to the author there were nine phases to the operation, though two were the most important.
In the introduction, the author, probably using his encylopedia of Pacific Islands, describes... more info

from The University of North Carolina Press
Price: $7.28

Customer Review:
As a retired Marine First Sergeant (white) who was very familiar with the history of the Montford Point Marines, my eyes were opened to a more telling story that needed to be told. Although most books, articles and movies focus on the confrontational pressure cooker of black vs. white in a few... more info

from The Johns Hopkins University Press
Price: $49.45

Customer Review:
I read this book twice ten years ago when it was still in the library. I haven't been able to find a copy since then, but the images of the hellish, alien landscapes that Mr. Goin photographs are still so vivid that to use words "powerful" or "evocative" would tarnish their terrible beauty.

from Alphascript Publishing

Customer Review:
This book was a waste of money.
The picture on the front cover was shot in Hawaii not even on Kwajalein. The font was so small it is bearly readable. The information is almost entirely sourced from Wikipedia.
