BeardAn exceptionally comprehensive review of the "Forgotten War" which took some 30000 American lives. Goulden has given us the in-depthanalysis of the critical political realities of the day; which most Americans are rarely exposed to. My only criticism of this book is the tendencytoward repetitiveness; and occasional inconsistency. However; that may be because of the way the book is written. All in all; I would recommend the book highly for historians; both professional and amateur.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Very good history.

Korea - The Untold Story of the WarBy Buck BallowThis is an excellent academic period study. Sadly; the author allows his all to transparent personal dislike of General MacArthur to shine throughout the book; especially in the latter chapters. However; as one who was there in GHQ under MacArthur; the book does confirm; at least for me; my long held personal opinion that the State Department; plus Marsrhall and Bradley were extremely jealous of the General for all that he had accomplished during the war and later in Japan. They finally got rid of him and the first thing they did was try to remove all traces of him. For example; we were instructed to remove the GHQ shoulder insignia;' they got rid of it immediately upon his departure and changed our name from GHQ FEC to USAFFE.
