About This Item
Washington DC: Regenry Publishinton Co., 2006. First Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/near fine. About As New in all respects. Clean and unmarked. First printing, full number line. "The son of an alcoholic, Arnold became a wealthy merchant before he took up arms against the British, but distinguishing himself on the battlefield was not enough to earn Arnold the prestige he perpetually sought. Washington, who grew up on a tranquil farm, was the beneficiary of guidance from influential figures and was groomed to be a leader. Palmer has a talent for building momentum and suspense, but his most skilled turn is as profiler of the military comrades who would later be foes."--Publishers Weekly. Palmer, a military historian, was a colonel of the 2nd Armored Division, an adviser to the ARVN military academy and armored units, during the Vietnam War. He rose to become Superintendent of West Point were he had been a teacher of military history. Every effort is made to ship all books and other items within 24 hours.
