War is inherently ghastly; but Korea tops that listBy Bill ClarkeThis book covers only the first part of the Korean War; but in terms of how ill-prepared we were to fight it; and the horrific conditions that we ran into by that first winter—at least we thought we were about to win it and be home by Christmas. But then the massive Chinese invasion came; and that turned the whole war around for us; particularly around the Chosin Reservoir. Very fascinating book. (The author died before the second book came out; so as I remember it; it was a friend of his who wrote the second one.)0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Grim RealityBy Victor L. PillowGreat stories form people on the ground fighting the war. You make an emotional and intellectual connection with the men who fought there. Many stories are quite gripping as the terrain; weather and circumstances of the war were quite grim.
