America's Forgotten War:

The Korean Conflict, 1950-1953

by Lionel Leventhal

Coming from Savas is AMERICA'S FORGOTTEN WAR: The Korean Conflict, 1950-1953 by Michael Varhola

This new book covers every aspect of this overlooked conflict in an original and fast-paced style. Jammed with facts, myth-breaking discoveries, statistics and analysis, this thoroughly informative study is a welcome addition to literature on this misunderstood conflict.

The book includes chapters on the leading personalities, fighting on both sides, and all the major actions including the Inchon landing and the retreat from Chosin. Varhola also looks at the role of the US Army, Marines and Air Force in the conflict, and the lessons they learnt in the bitter and prolonged fighting, and reveals the true physical and political costs of the war to defeat North Korea. (240 pages, £ 9.99 paperback).
