"An absolutely brilliant book . . . One cannot understand America and its history without reading it." -- Merle Miller. Often described as "the forgotten war," the Korean War (1950-53) had a huge impact on Cold War history, and its consequences are far from over. This definitive, readable history is based on previously unavailable Freedom of Information Act documents and well illustrated with maps and photographs. New Preface by the author.

In the 1970s, a prominent journalist examined the immediate postwar period to find rampant political and social tensions. His survey offers a unique perspective on a critical era in American history. Includes a new Preface by the author.
