Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
In July 1958, US Marines stormed the beach in Beirut, Lebanon, ready for combat. They were greeted by vendors and sunbathers. Fortunately, the rest of their mission - helping to end Lebanon's first civil war - went nearly as smoothly. Bruce Riedel's new book tells the now-forgotten story of the first US combat operation in the Middle East.
