On 25 June 1950 the invasion of South Korea by the Communist North launched one of the bloodiest conflicts of the last century. The seemingly limitless power of the Chinese-backed North was thrown against the ferocious firepower of the UN-backed South in a war that can be seen today as the stark prelude to Vietnam.

Max Hastings has drawn on first-hand accounts of those who fought on both sides to produce this vivid and incisive reassessment of the Korean War, bringing the military and human dimensions into sharp focus.

Reviews for The Korean War (Audio Book)

'A brilliant and compelling book which must rank, even by the standards Max Hastings has set, as a masterpiece.' -- London Review of Books 'Rings true and will surely stand the test of time ... Max Hastings has no peer as a writer of battlefield history.' -- Stephen E. Ambrose, author of Eisenhower: The President and Nixon: The Education of a Politician
