Gut
Buch, das gelesen wurde, sich aber in einem guten Zustand befindet. Der Einband weist nur sehr geringfügige Beschädigungen auf, wie z.B. kleinere Schrammen, er hat aber weder Löcher, noch ist er eingerissen. Bei gebundenen Büchern ist der Schutzumschlag möglicherweise nicht mehr vorhanden. Die Bindung weist geringfügige Gebrauchsspuren auf. Die Mehrzahl der Seiten ist unbeschädigt, das heißt, es gibt kaum Knitter oder Einrisse, es wurden nur in geringem Maße Bleistiftunterstreichungen im Text vorgenommen, es gibt keine Textmarkierungen und die Randbereiche sind nicht beschrieben. Alle Seiten sind vollständig vorhanden. Genauere Einzelheiten sowie eine Beschreibung eventueller Mängel entnehmen Sie bitte dem Angebot des Verkäufers.

"This book makes you want to learn more about the initial American offensives of WWI... [it] is highly recommended for anyone interested in American's combat efforts in the First World War." -- Indy Squadron Dispatch "Included in the recount are first-hand accounts, photos and maps -- in both black and white and full color -- lending to an outstanding survey for specialized, in-depth collections where World War I history is a focus." -- Midwest Book Review "...is an excellent addition to the Osprey campaign series. It is recommended for readers who have interest in World War I as it covers the battles in question with superb descriptions and informative maps, pictures and color plates. Beyond the specific battles, the book covers the build up to the battles with pertinent insights into the makeup and goals of both sides as they approached the battle." -- The Wargamer, "Included in the recount are first-hand accounts, photos and maps - in both black and white and full color - lending to an outstanding survey for specialized, in-depth collections where World War I history is a focus." - Midwest Book Review "This book makes you want to learn more about the initial American offensives of WWI...

Synopsis
In March 1918 of World War I (1914-1918), the Germans had successfully pushed the frontline to within 120km of Paris; the town of Chateau Thierry marking the tip of German advance. Nevertheless, in a daring counter-offensive on June 3, the American Expeditionary Force (AEF) reinforced the French and threw the Germans back across the Marne River. Exhilarated by this success, the 2d Marine Division was tasked with taking the strategically significant Belleau Wood. On the Marines arrival the French were retreating in the face of the German onslaught, but the Marines defiantly declared "Retreat, hell! We just got here!" To take the wood the Marines marched through an exposed wheat field under fierce German fire, and suffered a staggering casualty rate. The Marines, undaunted, reached the wood and bitterly struggled for 20 days, capturing and re-capturing it six times over, and finally securing the position against all odds, ending the last German offensive on the Western Front. The US forces suffered 9,777 casualties, took 1,800 German prisoners, and the wood was officially renamed Bois de la Brigade de Marine in honor of their courage and victory. Discussing the strategy employed by the Allies and accompanied by original photographs and detailed maps, this book examines the two key battles that saw America's baptism of fire in World War I: Chateau Thierry and Belleau Wood., In March 1918 the Germans had successfully pushed the frontline to within 120km of Paris; the town of Chateau Thierry marking the tip of German advance.

  • Wow !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Being of Marine herritage, "Once a Marine, always a Marine. Can't wait to read about my fore-brothers who fought gallantly at Belleau Wood, France. Gave it a 5 star rating without even reading yet.

  • Chateau Thierry & Belleau Wood 1918 by David Bonk (2007

    Bonsoir, Excusez-moi, mais je préfère écrire en français, mon anglais étant trop médiocre... Je vis et habite à 45 km du Bois Belleau et c'est un lieu que je connais, ainsi d'ailleurs que le monument de la côte 304 près de Chateau-Thierry à quelques kilomètres de là. Je m'intéresse beaucoup à tout ce qui concerne la Yankee Division, or cette division a combattu dans le secteur du Bois Belleau. L'ouvrage que je viens d'acquérir me permet, d'une part de compléter ma connaissance sur le parcours de la 26ème Division, et d'autre part d'avoir une vision actuelle de la part d'historiens américains sur ces événements. Pour essayer d'avoir une vision objective, la seule vision que peut donner la lecture d'ouvrages français ne suffit pas. C'est pourquoi j'essaie de me documenter plus ...

  • Succinct and well-illustrated

    I recently read a detailed account of the Battle of Belleau Wood but it lacked the detailed maps and illustrations provided in this book. Typical of Osprey's "Campaign" series, these provide much clarity as to what happened, where and when at each point of the battle.
