Buch Erstausgabe
Trade Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Kawano, Kenji - Photographs (illustrator). First Printing. 107 Pages. This is a 1991 First Impression as Stated. Front cover lower corner has a two-inch crease. No other defects noted on this very good book. Illustrated with black and white photographs on every page. Back cover has photograph of Second all-Navajo platoon at San Diego, California 1943. During World War II, as the Japanese were breaking American codes as quickly as they could be devised, a small group of Navajo Indian Marines provided their country with its only totally secure cryptogram. Recruited from the vast reaches of the Navajo Reservation in Arizona and New Mexico, from solitary and traditional lives, the young Navajo men who made up the code talkers were present at some of the Pacific Theatre's bloodiest battles. They spoke to each other in the Navajo language, relaying vital information between the front lines and headquarters. Their contribution was immeasurable, their bravery unquestionable. Seventy-five of the surviving Navajo code talkers are included in this book, their faces testaments to long and valiant lives. Contents: Foreword Carl N. Gorman, Preface Kenji Kawano, Introduction Benis M. Frank, The Photographs, and Navajo Clan Names. Kenji Kawano, the photographer, is a native-born Japanese who came to America in 1973 and was drawn to the mystery and beauty of the Navajo reservation, where he met Carl Gorman, one of the patriarchs of the Navajo Code Talkers Association. His interest and their trust led to his appointment as the group's official photographer, and his portraits are honest and sensitive representations. Benis M. Frank is head of the Marine Corps Oral History Program. Contents: Foreword, Preface, Introduction, The Photographs, and Navajo Clan Names. The following Code Talkers have Signatures on the Half-Title Page: Samuel Smith - 4th Marine Division, Alford Peebles - 4th Marine 6th DW, Wesford Buck - 2nd Marine Division, Tooler Toner - 1st Marine Division 1st Signal Battalion, Chester Nez - 1st Original 1942 - 1945, and Alfredo Newman Sr. - 3rd Marine Division.
