Synopsis "Iwo Jima Monuments: The Untold Story"
ATTENTION! "I landed and fought on lwo Jima. I saw with my own eyes our flag go up on Mount Suribachi......Rodney's book is a must-read Bible for all Marines and people who cherish this sacred symbol of our Corps and our Country. Semper Fi!" [Iwo Jima Survivor Cpl. Les Gadbury] Published just in time for the 75th Anniversary of IWO JIMA, this book - with FOREWORD by General Michael W. Hagee, USMC, 33rd Commandant of the United States Marine Corps - is the first comprehensive study of all of our nation's Iwo Jima Monuments, beginning with the little-known original 1945 Monument, the 1954 Marine Corps War Memorial, those erected at Marine Corps bases and many lesser-known others from coast-to-coast!Iwo Jima's bloody legacy includes more casualties than D-Day/Normandy. One third of all Marines who died in World War II were killed on Iwo Jima. One third of all Marines who fought on Iwo Jima were killed or wounded on Iwo Jima. As the biographer of Iwo Jima sculptor Felix de Weldon, Brown acquired de Weldon's entire World War II and 1950s archive of thousands of photographs, documents, correspondence and primary source material never before seen. At 300+ pages and with hundreds of photos and illustrations, this is a definitive work filling a void in Marine Corps history.
