Swift, Silent and Surrounded is a wonderful collection of Marine Corps stories that will be enjoyed by everyone. If you liked the “Brown Side Out, Green Side Out” series of books by Major Gene Duncan, or are a fan of the Chicken Soup For the Soul books, you will love this volume of Sea Stories, Marine Corps articles, and politically incorrect commentary. You will swell with pride as you read of the Marines in Iraq, Kuwait and Vietnam, laugh at the antics of some of the Corps’ “Nimrods,” and perhaps even shed a tear as you learn more about “The Few and the Proud.” Contributing authors include Fred Reed, Colonel David Hackworth, James Webb and many others.
