First to Fight
In this riveting insider's chronicle, legendary Marine General "Brute" Krulak submits an unprecedented examination of U.S. Marines—their fights on the battlefield and off, their extraordinary esprit de corps. Deftly blending history with autobiography, action with analysis, and separating fact from fable, General Krulak touches the very essence of the Corps: what it means to be a Marine and the reason behind its consistently outstanding performance and reputation.

Bickel, a military and business strategist in Washington, D.C., challenges military and strategic theories that treat particular bureaucratic structures, large corporations, and elites as the progenitors of doctrine. He looks at the role that mid-level combat officers play in creating military doctrine, and evaluates Marine civil and military pacification operations in Haiti, the Dominican Republic, and Nicaragua. He gives evidence of how field experience obtained before 1940 played a role in shaping the Marine Corps' Small Wars Manual and elements of doctrine that exist today. c. Book News Inc.
