The War for Korea, 1945-1950: A House Burning
by Allen R. Millett
Hardcover
348 Pages
Emphasizing the Korean perspective, Millett recasts the war's origins - providing a new starting date in 1948 - and establishes the struggle of a post-colonial Asian war of national liberation modeled after the People's War. Drawing upon sources from the major nations involved in this drama, Millett brings a fresh perspective to a war that was well underway before America became mired in the conflict.
