US ARMY RANGERS SPECIAL FORCES OF WWII THEIR WAR IN PHOTOGRAPHS
Book Type: C, O By Robert Todd Ross. This book, by the author of the Supercommandos, tells the story of the U.S. Army's elite Rangers and Special Forces largely through pictures. Never before has such an expansive view of WWII elite forces been offered in one volume. An extensive search of public and private archives unearthed an astonishing number of rare and never before seen images, including color. Most notable are the nearly twenty exemplary photographs of Lieutenant Colonel William O. Darby's Ranger force in Italy, taken by Robert Capa, considered by many to be the greatest combat photographer of all time. Complementing the period photographs are numerous color plates detailing the rare and often unique items of insignia, weapons, and equipment that marked the soldiers whose heavy task it was to "Lead the Way". Over 250 b/w and color photographs, 240 pp.
