520    From the Publisher: This book combines a lively, well-
       researched narrative with a generous selection of 
       illustrations, many in color, and numerous maps to provide
       a topically and chronologically balanced history of the 
       U.S. Marine Corps from its inception to the present day. 
       The combination of a wealth of art, a substantial text, 
       and a balanced perspective make the work unique in the 
       literature of the Corps. Many of its illustrations have 
       never before been published or have appeared only in black
       and white. The history of the Marine Corps is one of the 
       greatest military success stories of all time. The books 
       details how and why a force that throughout the first 
       century of its existence seldom exceeded the strength of 
       an infantry regiment eventually attained a strength 
       greater than that of many armies and developed what is 
       arguably the world's most potent military mystique. 
       Because the history of any institution is the product of 
       the actions of the individuals who comprise it, we have 
       included cameos of some of the individuals who made 
       exceptional contributions to the Corps' rich heritage.
