About the Book
"Engrossing wartime memoirs . . . impressive and instructive." - "Kirkus Reviews"Book Synopsis
This is the candid and revealing wartime memoir of the soldier who, at the age of just 32, became South Korea's first four-star general. The book brings an unprecedented perspective to the Korean War.Review Quotes
"A frank and detailed account by one of the most prestigious officers in the Korean War. It is not only accurate but fascinating because of General Paik's outspoken revelations of his personal relations with President Rhee and Geneals Walker, Ridgway, and Van Fleet. For any history buff yearning for the inside story .... Paik's book is must reading." -- John Toland
"This is the first major South Korean interpretation of the conflict to be translated into English, and thus fills a void in the literature."
