This is a major new history told from all sides, to coincide with the sixtieth anniversary of the outbreak of the Korean War. In this blockbusting debut, distinguished American professor Sheila Miyoshi Jager interweaves international events & previously unknown personal accounts to give a brilliant new history of the war, its aftermath & its global impact told from American, Korean, Soviet & Chinese sides. This is the first account to examine not only the military, but the social & political aspects of the war across the whole region
- & it takes the story up to the present day: for the current wrangles are part of a conflict that has been ongoing for more than seventy years. Serious history with a strong narrative, akin to Max Hastings or Antony Beevor, ” Korea: War Without End” is the thrilling & highly original debut of a historian who will clearly go very far indeed. `I entered the prison & walked around & discovered the corpses; they were black & covered with flies. I couldn`t believe how cruelly these civilians were killed.I thought that it didn`t matter whether this was done by the Communists or by our own troops
- it represented the sorrow of a weak people, the tragedy of a civil war`

- MAP TITLES: the grids shown on our website serve both the civilian & the military 1:50, 000 topographic series. Although the areas covered by maps in both series are identical (apart from some border or coastal sheets), occasionally map titles differ – only one title is shown on the grid, usually the military one. In Galicia, the Basque country & in the Catalan speaking areas the tendency now is to use local place names rather than the often better known Castilian ones. Where possible, both versions are included in our titles. Map titles listed on our website are based on information received by us at the time of publication, but sometimes maps arrive showing a completely different title! As long as the map number is as ordered, the correct map has been supplied.
