5.0 out of 5 stars A fine general history of the Corps. New 3rd edition coming!, January 4, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: United States Marines: The First Two Hundred Years 1775-1975 (Hardcover)

General Simmons has written a great general history of the Marine Corps. This classic account is very readable. I understand the Naval Institute Press has just published an updated and revised 3rd edition of this book. General Simmons was also the senior editor of the just released pictorial history entitled The Marines.
