The Coldest Winter: America and the Korean War
from Hyperion
Price: $23.10

Customer Review:

Excellent book on the background of the Korean War. How the USA were not prepared, insight in the personal, cultural and political relations between the main players. And the lessons (not) learned.
History does repeat.

Soviet MiG-15 Aces of the Korean War (Aircraft of the Aces)
from Osprey Publishing
Price: $15.61

Customer Review:

Although a wide literature can be found about the USAF heroes in the Korean War, the Soviet paper was secret till recent years, but it included several pilots with over 20kills in that war.
This book offers an exhaustive view of the "Honchos" in that war, written unit by unit, day by day. more info

Customer Review:

I first read, "The Coldest War" when I was in the military myself.
My training and duty seemed hard and long to me, but compared to what the guys in the Korean War went through, it was a cake walk.

Having read several books about the Chosin Campaign, I was pleased to finally get the story of what occurred on the East side of the reservoir.

This Kind of War: The Classic Korean War History - Fiftieth Anniversary Edition
from Potomac Books Inc.
Price: $16.47

Customer Review:

There aren't many "classics" of history or literature addressing the Korean War. T.R. Fehrenbach's "This Kind of War", first published in the early 1960s, is probably the closest thing we have to a Korean War history by an American that has endured.
Make no mistake, this book shows its age. To... more info

Hervey Allen is at his finest in this carefully crafted memoir of his time as a soldier in France. While he is best known as author of the sweeping historical fiction Anthony Adverse, which was a best seller in the 1930s(and later a pretty mediocre movie), he proves in Towards the Flame that he is... more info

I have know Arthur, Nell, and Lanny Boyd since about 1995. I remember some time in about 1998, when Mr. Boyd came into my pharmacy and asked me how to dispose of a cyanide capsule.

Customer Review:

This book is probably one of the most profound books that I have ever read during my 22 years of service while serving as a U. S. Marine. What these men endured is nothing short of heroic.
