"Fantastic history of the Korean War that covers not just the famous events like the entry of China and the ouster of Gen. MacArthur but also touches on the less high profile aspects of the conflict including how average civilians and prisoners of war fared. Highly recommended to anyone interested in 20th century history."
"The author interviews Chinese and North Korean Veterans. The book discusses how the Korean War served as a prelude to the Vietnam War. The strategies taken by the commanders are discussed in detail."
"Classic study of the Korean War, takes you from the high level strategy to the unit level tactical actions. One of the best overviews of the entire conflict."
