Sobre este artículo
On 25 June 1950 Communist North Korea invaded South Korea and it was to become one of the bloodiest and devastating conflicts of the century. It pitted seemingly limitless manpower of the Chinese backed North against the ferocious firepower of the UN backed South. 486 pages with 45 black and white photographs and 6 maps. Book in good condition with tanning and some wear to cover (see photo).
Sinopsis
It was the first war we could not win. At no other time since World War II have two superpowers met in battle. Now Max Hastings, preeminent military historian takes us back to the bloody bitter struggle to restore South Korean independence after the Communist invasion of June 1950. Using personal accounts from interviews with more than 200 vets -- including the Chinese -- Hastings follows real officers and soldiers through the battles. He brilliantly captures the Cold War crisis at home -- the strategies and politics of Truman, Acheson, Marshall, MacArthur, Ridgway, and Bradley -- and shows what we should have learned in the war that was the prelude to Vietnam.
