Inhoud:

American Samurai offers an innovative approach to military history by linking battlefield dynamics of the Pacific War to cultural, social, and institutional myth among marines of the First Division. It blends a humanistic approach of letting the actors speak for themselves in letters and memoirs with insights from the social sciences.
