| Publisher Description: This pictorial history of DLI-the Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center-provides a comprehensive look into the evolution of our Nation's effort to understand the languages and cultures of friends and foes alike since the days leading up to World War II. Cameron Binkley has compiled a masterful work based on his insights as deputy command historian of the Institute and his unique background as a historian and veteran. No single work so succinctly and colorfully describes the development of DLI throughout the decades since its inception. I encourage you to enjoy this book as it brings to life the wonderful faculty, staff, and students who have served this Nation in times of peace and war. |
