Synopsis :

From the American attempts to take back Pusan from the North Korean communist forces at the outset of the war in 1950, to the U.S. assault on Inchon and capture of Seoul, to the final bloody battles of Pork Chop, Old Baldy, and the Hook in 1953, this military history authoritatively chronicles the conflict that became America's first unwinnable foreign war and gravely demonstrated the limits of the West's power in the East.
