Prominent military historian Stanton sheds new light on X Corps, & its commander Edward M. Almond, in the Korean War. He gives readers both a well documented overview of the early, dramatic period of the war as well as fresh insight into the racial mindset of the army -- a mindset in step with the separate but equal policy in place in the U.S. The book is rich in detail gleaned from such primary sources as the papers & oral histories of senior officers & records of X Corps & Far East Command. Coupled with maps & photos, readers will find this book totally engrossing & exciting. "One of the best post-World War II military accounts of U.S. forces fighting on foreign soil."
