摘要

At last - a coffee-table book for the rest of us! In a market devoted to pretty pictures laid out with indifferent text, Bruce Gamble has crafted a magnificent account of the most famous U.S. Marine squadron of the second world war. It is a delight to own, to look at, and (best of all) to read. Gamble has devoted much of his entire writing career to VMF-214, first with a history of the Black Sheep squadron, then a biography of its commander, Gregory "Pappy" Boyington. They were followed by two books about Rabaul, the Japanese-occupied Pacific island fortress against which the Black Sheep were deployed, and where Boyington was imprisoned in January and February 1944. In the course of his research, Gamble amassed an amazing collection of photographs. Frank Walton, VMF-214's intelligence officer, bequeathed him five cartons of material, and other veterans added to his hoard.
