This title features over 100 of the most famous and decisive actions by specific units, such as the Parachute Regiment, US Marines and Royal Marines, in conflicts such as World War II, Korea, Vietnam and the Middle East. Each action is illustrated by means of a detailed colour map that shows movements and decisive incidents, with accompanying text providing background information and aftermath. It is a large format book which allows the maps to be shown to maximum effect. Some of the maps are very large and go over two pages, such as the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.
