The author of this episodic but vivid series of sketches, John W. Thomason, was a Captain in the Corps, descended from a distinguished Southern military family. A natural writer, his colloquial account follows the Marines through France, giving an account of their most famous- and bloodiest - actions, including the Argonne Forest, Belleau Wood, Chateau Thierry, Mont Blanc and St Mihiel. As well as the fighting itself, Thomason is good on off-duty anecdotes. First-hand American accounts of the Great War are rare. This is one of the best. It is profusely illustrated by the authors own excellent drawings\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51979237425440,"sku":"NEW1847349749","price":22.22,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/fix-bayonets-1847349749","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
