Cloth. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fair. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. Puerto Rico's Fighting 65th U.S. Infantry. From San Juan to Chorwan. Previous owners name and address stamped to inside cover. Wear and a couple to tears to edge of D/J. Slight browning to D/J. Price clipped to D/J. In the second week of June 1951, the heights overlooking the village of Chorwan, Korea - the centre of the Iron Triangle - were taken by the all-Puerto Rican 65th U.S. Infantry Regiment. The Chinese withdrew to the North, and from that point on the war wound down to the peace table. This was the final combat action of the hard-fighting 65th, a regiment given little recognition outside of the Puerto Rican press. Nevertheless, one hundred and twenty-five of their number were awarded the Silver Star; four the Distinguished Service Cross. Their commander, General Harris, reaped praise and commendations from the highest sources for the action of his troops. Certainly no one is more qualified to tell their story. And this he does, with verve, wit, and enthusiasm. When first assigned to the 65th General Harris thought he was being relegated to the boondocks. From the start of training in San Juan, however, he rapidly changed his mind. In the Vieques maneuvers his men distinguished themselves against the experienced men of the U.S. 3rd Infantry Division. In combat they were fearless. All Korean veterans remember the bitter cold of the winters. To those used to warm climates, it was particularly gruelling, but the Puerto Ricans stood their ground. Here is a book to make every Puerto Rican proud. It is also an important eyewitness account of action in a war that has not been written about popularly but whose fighters certainly deserve as much recognition as soldiers in any war. Illustrated. 220 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).

A wonderful pair of commemorative items; of World War 1 Paris; a naive art hand-drawn certificate thanking Lt. Credo Harris, who oversaw a Red Cross shelter in the 7ieme; then an American soldier in Paris, later a Kentucky newspaperman and promoter of radio (and) a photo of Harris at Lord Byron's table at the Armenian Catholic Monastery on San Lazzaro, Venice in 1911. Titled "Immeuble du 40 Rue de L'Universite. Offert par Pierre Braun au Lieutenant Credo Harris. en Reconnaissance de. Vigilance pendant les Nuits de Bombardements." Decorated and illustrated by Braun, this hand drawn, lettered and colored certificate lists the names of 45 locals who stayed in the Red Cross shelter overseen by Harris, thanking him for the work he has done. The certificate is decorated with colored French, American, English & Belgian flags. At the head, it shows a rooster crowing "Viva les Allies". Besides the Braun family, it lists the families Badosa, Carraud, Cloise, Coussier, Frenay, Garnault, Leprince, Lemaire, Mabille, Hermann, Foly, Lecorgne, Peron, Pepin, Rocle, Sordello, Pajot and Verger. The Armenian Catholic Monastery at San Lazzaro in the Venetian Lagoon continues to be an important cultural institution for Armenians around the world. Lord Byron studied the Armenian language there, hence the silver print photograph of Harris with the priest Nerses Diratzouyan at Byron's table at the monastery, dated October 14, 1911. "Newspaperman, book author, radio announcer and managing director of Louisville station WHAS. Harris tirelessly advocated for the commercial development of radio, traveling to Washington D.C., sitting in on Department of Commerce meetings, pulling at the sleeve of then department head and future President of the United States, Herbert Hoover. Harris spoke the first words ever heard over the public airwaves of Kentucky, July 18, 1922 saying, "This is WHAS, the radiotelephone broadcast station of the Courier-Journal and Louisville Times in Louisville, Kentucky." If that wasn't enough, he also helped design the modern state Kentucky flag that today flies over the capitol dome in Frankfurt.'" (Lewis, John. Radio Master: The Life and Times of Sports Broadcasting Great Ted Husing. Langdon Street Press 2010.) Harris was the author of "Microphone Memoirs of the horse and buggy days of radio", Bobbs-Merrill, Indianapolis, Indiana (1937). Certificate 8.5 x 13"; photograph 3.25 x 4.25". Certificate a little browned at edges with a couple sml marginal closed tears repaired but very good overall, as is the photograph.
