pp. 335, “Written by a British newspaper reporter who covered the latter stages of the war, this book contains narrative from extensive interviews with participants in the Korean War, including many Chinese, which differentiates it from most other accounts. A portion of the book is devoted to the political underpinnings of Chinese intervention. The author provides supporting evidence for recent conclusions by figures such as U.S. General Matthew Ridgeway, that the initial N. Korean invasion was carried out without advance knowledge by China, which then hastily sent ill-equipped troops into battle after UN forces defeated North Korea.”
