This is the account of military servicemen - Marines - during the start of World War II. They are a rugged and disparate group hailing from urban areas, agricultural communities, and native reservations across America. Led by a seasoned and resilient sergeant, these soldiers unite to become a part of one of the most esteemed combat units in the world. With remarkable accuracy and precision, we accompany them into arduous battles - Guadalcanal and Tarawa - and witness extraordinary displays of camaraderie and courage. While Battle Cry does not glorify the battlefield, it stands as one of the most exceptional war tales in history. *Book has some wear on binding-included in the set free*
Milla 18
Like many of Uris's novels, Milla is told through the eyes of a journalist. In this case, American-Italian Chris de Monti, who is sent to war-torn Warsaw. As he becomes entangled in the lives of the city's inhabitants, he falls in love with a Jewish woman trapped in the Warsaw Ghetto. Devoted to her and the cause of the Jewish resistance, Chris risks his life to help them. When the ghetto is destroyed, he escapes with Gabriela Rak, a young woman carrying the child of a fallen Jewish leader.
