One Hundred Eighty Landings of United States Marines 1800- 1934 by Captain Harry Alanson Ellsworth, USMC "THE MARINES HAVE LANDED, AND HAVE THE SITUATION WELL IN HAND." First printed in 1934, this book is still the most comprehensive compendium of every landing of the early USMC. Little does the average American citizen realize what that oft repeated statement portends, and its real significance in relation to the protection of nationals of the United States residing in foreign lands. "From the Halls of Montezuma to the Shores of Tripoli" tells not half the story. In fact from Abyssinia to Uruguay would be a more accurate description of the breadth and reach of the Marine Corps in its distinguished history. In every quarter of the Globe, under every conceivable adverse condition, the United States Marines have fought side by side with the Navy and at times with the Army, foreign soldiers, marines and sailors, but more often alone, protecting American lives and interests - and that, without causing international complications. This book is over 70 years old, and there is still yet to be written a history so broad and complete. A must have for any member or admirer of "The Corps".
