"The Korean War: The Untold Truth" is a comprehensive and fascinating study of the Korean War. Joseph Goulden, a famous American political writer, made full use of the official files on the Korean War that he began to declassify in the late 1970s to collect the original intelligence data that the U. S. Government relied on for important decisions. After four years of interviewing many people involved and insiders, he completed this insider work through precise sorting and keen grasp. This batch of "Pentagon Korean War Documents" has been re-encrypted by the George W. Bush administration, which makes the truth revealed in this book even more rare and valuable. Following the main line of war decision-making and implementation, this book describes and analyzes the causes, background, development, and outcome of the Korean War in detail from the perspectives of party politics, international relations, military strategy, battles, and tactics, and panoramically reproduces the true process of decision-making and combat by the U. S. Political and military sides. The book also contains many insider plots of the highest decision-making authorities in the United States, focusing on portraying the unique temperaments and methods of many important military and political officials, such as Truman's stubbornness and rashness, Acheson's clever arrogance, MacArthur's surly dramatization, etc., So lifelike that they can be seen before their eyes.
Reader comments
The author of this book used a lot of pen and ink to record the telegrams exchanged between the United States and the United States at that time! It does record many little-known details and first-hand accounts!
Very good, let us understand this history from another angle.
The position determines the way of historical presentation. It is also a historical fact, but they use different angles to cleverly and appropriately retain their own opinions. Each one insists on the cause of the Korean War, but they all seem to be reasonable. Listening to both sides will make it clear. The only thing that cannot be changed is the historical fact of the armistice. Although both sides claim to be the victors, nothing has changed before and after the war except the dividing line and the dream of reunification. Many people died.
I learned about the War to Resist U. S. Aggression and Aid Korea from the American perspective, and learned about the bravery and heroic sacrifices made by our ancestors to protect our country 75 years ago. Our motherland will never forget it, and we will never forget these unknown heroes.
