Reviews
This is Dick Camp's eminently readable biography of a highly decorated officer whose name would have been familiar to Marines before 2000 but is perhaps not as well-known today. The book not only reintroduces that officer to us, but it is also an excellent survey of Marine Corps history from World War II through Vietnam through his eye., Richard Camp provides us with a well-researched account of the career of General Raymond Davis, from beginning to end, across three wars. His book is well researched, and accessible to both serious students of military history, as well as those exploring these events for the first time., Camp writes an awe-inspiring book of a humble and unsung Marine war hero--a national treasure-who gave his absolute all in the service to his country, the Marine Corps, and his Marines. These facts come across clearly in substantive depth throughout the book. It is historically accurate and crafted in such a way that unmistakably brings Davis's heroics to light and life for the reader., The author was Davis' aide-de-camp during the Vietnam War and writes with a personal knowledge of his subject. This work shines a well-deserved light on Davis and his service to his country., ...explains unknown details of how [The Korean War] was fought and the brutal sub-zero cold the participants endured., ...a balanced and thoroughly researched study of Davis's role in three wars that justifies the hero characterization in the book's title., Camp writes an awe-inspiring book of a humble and unsung Marine war hero--a national treasure who gave his absolute all in the service to his country, the Marine Corps, and his Marines. These facts come across clearly in substantive depth throughout the book. It is historically accurate and crafted in such a way that unmistakably brings Davis's heroics to light and life for the reader., A well-crafted biography of an important Marine commander. It illustrates well through Davis' career the Marine Corps of the mid-Twentieth century., The book should prove to be a fun read for military history enthusiasts, but its greatest value is as a starting point for future research into Davis' career that, hopefully, will further illuminate his importance to Marine Corps history., ...a good book told by a competent author; it's well researched and written. If you're a Jarhead, it's a must read.
