Title Description
The saga of The Corps continues in Volume IV of W.E.B. Griffin's remarkable series. BATTLEGROUND tells of the bloody months spanning Midway and Guadalcanal.

Ace pilot Charles Galloway wins command of a fighter squadron but nearly forfeits his life in combat. Officer Candidate John Marston Moore volunteers for a mission of great danger and secrecy. Colonel Frank Goettge leads a patrol into the heart of danger and pays the ultimate price. These are the men of the Corps and this is their story...of courage, loyalty, dedication and honor.

"Brilliantly informed by detail and realism. As our collective memory of WW II fades, a series like The Corps is not only worthwhile, it is a public service." (The Washington Times)

The 4th in the series, we now see how the Corps can fight on the sea,land, and in the air. Each book in the series stand alone, start in the begining and follow along to see why Marines are Marines. I look forward to the next book.

Mr. Russotto is a little dry at first, but his readings sort of grow on you. Terrific book as is the entire series.
