Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. 1st Edition. "First Edition" stated. Number line complete 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 -- the first printing. The struggle to hold St. Mere Eglise and the bridge causeways over the flooded Merderet until the D-Day landing forces could link up (they were days late -- and Bernard Montgomery wouldn't take his D-Day objective, the crossroads town of Caen, for six weeks) are depicted as a victory. And indeed, the 82nd and 101st Airborne seized and held their objectives. But they did it at a terrible cost in brigade commanders -- who led from the front, often with ad hoc assemblages of fewer than 5 percent of the men they expected to have, since few men came down anywhere near where they expected, and dozens drowned in fields that Allied intelligence failed to notice were flooded. Worst of all, in what Ruggero properly describes as their greatest failure, those analysts failed to discern (and thus to warn anyone) how hard it was going to be to move through the Norman hedgerows. Ruggero also notes that the bazooka rocket-launcher was effective only against the more vulnerable sides and rear of enemy tanks -- even the light, German-captured Renault tanks which the paratroopers faced on D-Day. 349 pp. including index.

"more than 100 photographs, drawings & cartoons". american history. world war i. journalism. world history. ~ Half a century ago the nation stood for the first time in her history on the brink of a major war. For five fateful, wildly melodramatic days, the awesome decision~to fight or not to fight~hung in the balance . while across the land and in the halls of Congress the issue was vigorously and often violently debated. FIVE DAYS TO WAR recreates the drama of those days. In scenes strongly reminiscent of today's divided attitudes on Vietnam ~ and caught here in vivid words and pictures ~ the nation argued President Wilson's call to arms while demonstrators on both sides made their strident, blatantly emotional last ditch appeals. Tensions mounted further as seething ethnic prejudices surfaced in the ugly form of wild unreasoning suspicion and open hatred. It was a memorable time. It was a time, this Holy Week in 1917, for United States Senator Henry Cabot Lodge to rout an angry assailant in the corridor outside his office; a time for the celebrated Ty Cobb, his spikes flashing, to barrel into Giant second~baseman, Buck Herzog, with a cry of " . German" on his lips; a time for our newly recalled Ambassador to Germany to interrupt a performance of the Metropolitan opera to demand the playing of our national anthem ~ and a time for other similarly irrational acts to become almost commonplace as a mood of prewar hysteria gripped the nation. On a deeper level, it was a time of national trauma ~a brief troubled moment in history as the nation struggled to adjust to a new, unfamiliar role in world affairs after a long, comfortable season in the blissfully sunny innocence of isolation. Finally, of course, the issue was resolved with the Congress overwhelmingly approving the President's request. But for President Wilson ~ this deeply idealistic "man of peace"~ it was a hollow triumph as in the growing shadows of that Good Friday evening long ago, he prepared to sign the newly ratified Declaration of War. FIVE DAYS TO WAR captures the essence of this momentous time in more than 100 carefully selected photographs, drawings and cartoons and in a vivid text that evokes the memory of an innocent America in crisis.
