US NAVY AND MARINE CORPS CAMPAIGN AND COMMEMORATIVE MEDALS

US Navy and Marine Corps Campaign and Commemorative medals. This work provides an in-depth overview of not only the history and development of each campaign medal, but also the historical significance of the events surrounding the establishment of each medal. The book also covers several of the more important commemorative medals often struck on a limited basis to account for the lack of appropriate official federal awards. This work, which is well organised and easy to read, proves to be an interesting and informative reference work for the collector of these Navy and Marine Corps medals. All medals are exquisitely photographed in colour, and there is a value guide in US dollars.
