About This Item
Dubuque, Ia.: Telegraph Herald Publication, 2002. 289pp. Original illustrated wraps. Stated First Edition. Profusely illustrated (B/W photographs throughout). "The Telegraph Herald is extremely proud to present OUR COUNTRY CALLED: A TRIBUTE TO TRI-STATE VETERANS OF KOREA AND VIETNAM. Like many of the local historically-based book publishing efforts we have taken on over the past several years, OUR COUNTRY CALLED was an emotionally charged project, but more importantly, a much-needed effort to remember a special group of tri-state citizens.the veterans of Korea and Vietnam. Those veterans.our friends, neighbors and relatives, found themselves in difficult times with their 'sense of duty' challenged by geo-global politics, indifference to the cause, and uncertainty about the outcome of their efforts and sacrifices." Pages are bright and clean (no writing, underlining, or highlighting). Binding is tight with no cracks or breaks. Laminate on covers are beginning to peel away. Shelfwear (light bumping to edges, light rubbing to corners). No previous owner markings. Very nice reading copy of this scarce title.. First Edition, Collectible. Oversized Softcover. Good +/No Jacket as Issued. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.
