This account of the fight put up against overwhelming odds by the "Glorious Gloucesters" at the battle of the Imjin River in April 1951, and the subsequent imprisonment as POWs of most of the survivors, deserves to go down as a classic tale of warfare and heroism. The author, Captain (later General Sir) Anthony Farrar Hockley, who was adjutant (e.g. battalion chief of staff) of the first battalion, the Gloucestershire Regiment, originally wrote the book in the mid fifties, shortly after his return from captivity. During a major Chinese and North Korean offensive during the Korean war, the 1st battalion of the Gloucestershire Regiment held their position on the Imjin river against many times their numbers for three ...

6.Furies and Fireflies over Korea: The Story of the Men and Machines of the Fleet Air Arm, RAF and Commonwealth Who Defended South Korea, 1950-1953 by: Graham Thomas August 31, 2004

This is a welcome book with a lot of new material in it. Thomas has gone to source for his research, not just log books and squadron histories but the actual pilots that flew. This makes the book priceless and, as Craig Cabell implies in his most excellent foreword, very heart on sleeve. It is good that Thomas has documemted the book in this way; it will make it a firm favourite with aviation enthusiasts for years to come. A good book.

7.The Korean War (Essential Histories) by: Carter Malkasian September 28, 2001
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: £9.99 Prices subject to change. Used Price: £5.99
This is an excellent account of the events of the Korean War. Whilst it doesn't offer much in the way of insights into life in Korea at the period, it provides a clear, step by step account of the actual events of the war. It details all of the major turning points in the conflict as well as giving the reasons behind the actions taken with regard to the political situation at the time. It is easy to read and I thouroughly reccomend it to anyone with an interest in military or Cold War history.

10.MASH: An Army Surgeon in Korea by: Otto F. Apel, Pat Apel November 30, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: £17.95 Prices subject to change. Used Price: £18.88
I, like most, was a big fan of the MASH TV series, and having had a bit of a review of it, decided to see what reading there was out there and came across this. It is a true perspective of a MASH surgeon, and I for one found it unputdownable, and found myself realising both how alike and how different this book and the series were. Apel worked as a consultant on the TV series, which I guess is where a lot of the comparisons come from, but I would recommend it as a stand alone book in it's own right - and it certainly shows that not all the time in the MASH was fun and games!
