From Belleau Wood to Bougainville

The Oral History of Major General Robert Blake Usmc and the Travel Journal of Rosselet Wallace Blake

By: Robert Wallace Blake

The book was written as a companion volume for the authors most recent work, Bayonets and Bougainvilleas. In this volume the author presents the verbatim text of two major source documents for that work; his fathers ORAL HISTORY and his mothers TRAVEL JOURNAL, with his own added commentary. The HISTORY is the text of General Blakes official interview with Marine Corps historian Benis Frank covering the Generals Marine Corps career 1917-1949. The JOURNAL is the transcript of journal entries and letters written by the authors mother during travels abroad and in the USA from 1931 to 1941. The authors commentary weaves his mothers words into a continuous narrative covering the Blakes twenty-three year married life. Taken as a whole the book offers and unusual picture of military life in the separate words of the husband and the wife.

Integral Mechanical Attachment

A Resurgence of the Oldest Method of Joining

By: Robert W. Messler

Integral Mechanical Attachment, highlights on one of the world's oldest technologies and makes it new again. Think of buttons and toggles updated to innovative snaps, hooks, and interlocking industrial parts. Mechanical fasteners have been around as long as mankind, but manufacturers of late have been re-discovering their quick, efficient and fail proof advantages when using them as interlocking individual components as compared with such traditional means of joining materials like welding, soldering, gluing and using nuts bolts, rivets and other similar devices. For many years, it has been virtually impossible to find a single-source reference that provides an overview of the various categories of fastening systems and their various applications. Design engineers should find this book to be an invaluable source of detailed, illustrated information on how such fasteners work, and how they can save time and money. Students, too, will find this book to be extremely useful for courses in mechanical design, machine design, product development and other related areas where fastening and joining subjects are taught. This will be the first reference book to come along in many years that will fully illustrate the major classes of integral mechanical fasteners, replete with examples of typical assembly and ideas and suggestions for further research.* Covers all major techniques for integral mechanical attachment within the context of other types of joining including chemical (adhesive) bonding, melting and solidification (welding, soldering, brazing), and mechanical joining (fasteners and part features)* Includes specific chapters for particular attachment considerations by materials type, including metals, plastics, ceramics, glass, wood, and masonry* Provides unique coverage of mechanical/electrical connections for reliable contact and use
