Rezensionen

This book provides an excellent overview of the Korean War, with many photographs. The chapter on the aftermath and implications of the war, while dated, remains a high point of the book.

1667 Korea: The Limited War, by David Rees (read 29 Oct 1981) This is a 1963 book by a British free-lance writer. I found the book fascinating and am very glad I read it.

This book is a synthesis of other people's research, written for a more or less popular audience instead of an academic audience. It is a reasonably quick and easy read, but doesn't include any original research. Rees wants to show that Wales played a role in Henry VII's usurpation of the English throne - in other words, he's trying to demonstrate that Wales is important too.
