Washington’s Marines: The Origins of the Corps and the American Revolution, 1775-1777:
"An extremely comprehensive and precise account of the Revolutionary War. The Marines' subject matter is very informational but just a small storyline in the book as a whole.
Overall, it is a highly recommended read on United States history." |

of
Washington’s Marines: The Origins of the Corps and the American Revolution, 1775-1777:
"An interesting book, though the title is a little misleading. The United States Marines date their beginning to November 10, 1775, when the Continental Congress authorized raising detachments of Marines for manning ships of the new continental navy. "
