The Korean War (1950-1953) has many nicknames: "The Forgotten War," "The Korean Police Action," "The Korean Conflict." President Truman called it a "bandit incursion." Most Americans called it a mistake. James Stokesbury's outstanding overview vividly illustrates the importance of understanding this bloody conflict today. This is classic military history that deftly chronicles the politics, battles, casualties, and negotiations of the war.
