The U.S. Marines on Iwo Jima, written by five official marine combat writers who personally saw action on the island, provides vivid insight into the battle that was described as "a nightmare in hell."

In this classic of "fringe" literature, Raymond W. Bernard PhD lays out the pros and cons of that argument that Jesus Christ was an Essene and that the "facts" around his life and crucifixion were manipulated by the secret sect.
