Book
The mistaken history of the Korean War : what we got wrong then and now / Paul M. Edwards.
"Intense propaganda and limited press coverage during the Korean War, coupled with vague objectives and an incomplete victory, resulted in a popular narrative of partial truth and factual omission. Battlefield stories--essentially true but often missing significant information--added an element of myth. Drawing on a range of sources, the author reexamines the war's causes, costs and outcomes"-- Provided by publisher.
