Chuck Tatum's non-fiction, IWO JIMA: RED BLOOD, BLACK SAND, PACIFIC APOCALYPSE, the first new book on Iwo Jima in a decade. Lavishly illustrated with 328 photos, maps & illustrations in its 330 pages, plus glossary, index & special photo section on Gunnery Sergeant John Basilone. Written by a |first wave| veteran of Iwo Jima enduring his baptism of fire, IWO JIMA: RED BLOOD, BLACK SAND: PACIFIC APOCALYPSE is a searing, graphic account of a tragic battle & one man's journey to war, the hell of combat & his long road home. Many photos are from the private files of General Keller Rockey, commander of Iwo's 5th Division, loaned by his son. A unique layout places photos & events on the same page, which gives the text exceptionally dramatic presentation. The Smithsonian Institution book stores feature IWO JIMA: RED BLOOD, BLACK SAND, PACIFIC APOCALYPSE. LEATHERNECK MAGAZINE praises it, & scores of letters from Iwo vets say, |...I dodged the bullets again & remembered my cold, sweating fear.| |I repressed memories of Iwo for half a century -- but you brought all the recollections back.| |I returned to Iwo with your book & stood on the black sand beach where I landed 50 years ago. It was quiet, lonely & there is still on cover.| |All the way through your book I kept saying, 'That's right!' 'Me too!' 'I remember doing that!'
