{"product_id":"the-korean-war-1","title":"The Korean War","description":"It was the first war we could not win. At no other time since World War II have two superpowers met in battle.\n\nMax Hastings—preeminent military historian—takes us back to the bloody bitter struggle to restore South Korean independence after the Communist invasion of June 1950. Using personal accounts from interviews with more than two-hundred vets—including the Chinese—Hastings follows real officers and soldiers through the battles. He brilliantly captures the Cold War crisis at home—the strategies and politics of Truman, Acheson, Marshall, MacArthur, Ridgway, and Bradley—and shows what we should have learned in the war that was the prelude to Vietnam.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 067166834X\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.067166834X.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Hastings, Max\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
