The Coldest War: A Memoir of Korea Paperback - 2000
by James Brady
On the 50th anniversary of the Korean conflict, Brady vividly describes his life as a young marine lieutenant in Korea, his rapid education in the realities of war, and the pressures of command. Brady is the author of the Hampton series and "The Marines of Autumn", and writes weekly columns for "Parade". 8-page photo insert.
First line
The Korean War, which President Truman called a police action and Averell Harriman "a sour little war," and which today is largely forgotten, began forty years ago, on the morning of Sunday, June 25, 1950, when 90,000 North Korean troops pushed across the 38th Parallel and came south.
