These are heavy volumes that are prone to binding failures when handled improperly. Some of these volumes are sound, some strengthened with new endpapers, some where binding is starting. None have failed bindings. The earlier volumes show more general wear to the boards than later volumes. I have prepared a more complete condition report on each volume so feel free to inquire. Shipping will be actual cost to me not more (weight of this is about 44 pounds). Please see images of the books you will receive.

Based on first-person accounts as well as military records, this book tells the story of those members of the Navajo Nation who served a unique role in the United States military during the Second World War.The Navajo Code Talkers saved potentially, thousands of lives with their unique talent and background, selflessly serving a nation which has not always served them well.
This book contains 8 autographs of Navajo Code Talkers. The six autographs on the title page are: Jack Jones, Alfred Newman, Alfred Peaches, Robert Walley, Albert Smith, and Bill Toledo., The seventh autograph beneath the introduction is that of Kee Etsicitty, and the eighth autograph on page 103 is also that of Private Etsicitty beneath his photo.
With these eight autographs, this book is a one-of-a-kind memory of a group of men who made a unique contribution toward ending the Second World War.

Folded into the form of a letter, the work was letterpress printed in wraps of handmade "combat paper" made from military uniforms. The author says: "Some time ago-maybe a year, maybe two? I had a conversation with some of my Combat Paper brothers (well, the kids call them their combat paper uncles, so it follows
