    An in-depth look at the United States Marine Corps-in the New York Times bestselling tradition of Submarine, Armored Cav, and Fighter Wing

    Only the best of the best can be Marines. And only Tom Clancy can tell their story--the
    fascinating real-life facts more compelling than any fiction. Clancy presents a unique
    insider's look at the most hallowed branch of the Armed Forces, and the men and women
    who serve on America's front lines.

    Marine includes:
    • An interview with the Commandant of the Marine Corps, General Charles "Chuck" Krulak
    • The tools and technology of the Marine Expeditionary Unit
    • The role of the Marines in the present and future world
    • An in-depth look at recruitment and training
    • Exclusive photographs, illustrations, and diagrams
    Forty years ago Tom Clancy was a Maryland insurance broker with a passion for naval history. Years before, he had been an English major at Baltimore’s Loyola College and had always dreamed of writing a novel. His first effort, The Hunt for Red October—the first of the phenomenally successful Jack Ryan novels—sold briskly as a result of rave reviews, then catapulted onto the New York Times bestseller list after President Reagan pronounced it “the perfect yarn.” From that day forward, Clancy established himself as an undisputed master at blending exceptional realism and authenticity, intricate plotting, and razor-sharp suspense. He passed away in October 2013. View titles by Tom Clancy
