Jarhead

by Anthony Swofford

Jarhead: A Marine's Chronicle of the Gulf War is Anthony Swofford's candid memoir of his experiences as a young United States Marine during the 1990–1991 Persian Gulf War. The narrative combines military training and deployment with reflections on Marine culture, the psychology of war and the lasting effects of service.

This is the 2003 Scribner hardcover published in Great Britain, complete with its dust jacket. The copyright page identifies it as the first UK edition, and the number line indicates a third printing. Hardcover ISBN 0743239180.

The book is flat signed by Anthony Swofford on the title page, with no visible personalization. The signature is clearly shown in the photographs.

Very Good condition per the seller. The dust jacket displays light rubbing and surface scuffing, minor edge and corner wear, and a small nick or short tear at the upper-right corner of the rear panel. Please review all photographs carefully, as they form part of the description.
