The first major surprise of the post World War II years came into play when in late June 1950; the United States found itself responding in crisis fashion to the North Korean invasion of the new republic of South Korea; just four years and nine months after VJ-Day. The nation became involved in Korea as a result of the Cairo and Yalta conferences in which the United States and the Soviet Union agreed to the concept of a free and independent post-war Korea.

It makes one want to get out a map (or google map) to try to hone in on some of the locations he mentions. Very interesting insight into the lives; human experience and rivalries of the Colonial period.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.

Must have been written by an ancestor of Dave BarryBy R.CabellIt is actually two books..... one is the history of the line for general consumption. The second is the SECRET history where William Byrd pokes fun at most of the people along on the adventure. Great sense of humor.
