About This Item
New York: Hyperion, 2008. Trade Paperback in Near Fine Condition. Maps by Paul J. Pugliese. A meticulously researched book, conjoining all of the factors of this tragic war: the military tactics and strategies of both sides; the international diplomacy; the internal politics; and the personalities of the various players. Halberstam's "The Best and the Brightest" was the defining work on the Vietnam War; now, three decades later, he sheds light on another dark corner in our history, the Korean War. In historical terms, it of course, precedes the Vietnam War. A tale of cynical double-dealing and a tale of bravery and zeal. xii, 719 pp. Glossary of Military Terms; Maps; Notes on Map Symbols; Notes; Bibliography; Index. 9 x 5.75 x 1.5 inches. 2008, Hyperion Press, New York. ISBN10: 0786888628, ISBN13: 9780786888627
