So it comes as no surprise that the Corps' top officer - a four-star general known as the Commandant - publishes a list of books that Marines of all ranks need to learn from.
The books run the gamut of development, from warfighting techniques discussed in "Marine Corps Doctrinal Publication 1: Warfighting" to leadership in "Battlefield Leadership", and surprisingly, even an anti-war book in "All Quiet on the Western Front."
The Corps has led a recent push for Marines to pick up a book from the always expanding list, of which you can see in full here, but we picked out 12 of our favorites from the list.
