MANY THE BRAVE...VALIANT THE FEW
In 1941 the ominous rumblings of a global war propel the United States military to adopt a game-changing weapon, the M 1 rifle--known by all who would experience it as the Garand! King of the battlefield, it would dominate the enemy from Guadalcanal to Sicily, from the vast cauldron of the Philippines to Normandy, Okinawa, and every contested kill zone and patch of soil in between.
Disciples of the Garand, brothers Tony and Woody Luzak and their companions, traverse the historic stepping stones which crisscross the mighty oceans. Their tenacious dedication compels them to repeatedly volunteer where harm's path is most treacherous.
VALIANT THE FEW PULLS NO PUNCHES. NO DIALING BACK IN INTENSITY.
In weaving his tale, Len Ferraguzzi deftly injects his heroic characters into the most trying of times. An authoritative historian and lively storyteller, the author spins a chronicle of soldiers and marines, of wives and families, of guerrilla patriots swept up in the great conflict of World War II. Of buddies lost and comrades snatched from death, of ground lost and electrifying assaults onward to ultimate victory, it's all captured in a breathtaking narrative.
