Description:
America's "forgotten war" lasted just 37 months, yet 54,246 Americans died in that time -- nearly as many as died in ten years in Vietnam. On the fiftieth anniversary of this devastating conflict, James Brady tells the story of his life as a young marine lieutenant in Korea.
Expand description
The Coldest War vividly describes Brady's rapid education in the realities of war and the pressures of command. Death comes in fits and starts as artillery on both sides freezes men in their bunkers; constant alertness is crucial for survival, while brutal cold and a seductive silence conspire to lull soldiers into an often fatal stupor.
The Korean War affected the lives of all Americans, yet is little known beyond the antics of "M*A*S*H". Here is the inside story that deserves to be told, and James Brady is a powerful witness to a vital chapter of our history.
