  • Author : John Melady
  • Publisher : Dundurn
  • Release : 2011-12-10
  • ISBN : 1459701348
  • Pages : 330 pages

Download or read book Korea written by John Melady and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 2011-12-10 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this revised edition, men from the army, navy, and air force are honoured for their bravery in the Korean War. The Korean War (1950-53) forms a little-known but exciting part of Canada’s military history. The heroism and sacrifice of Canadians who fought in this conflict as part of the United Nations force has often been ignored. In this lively, anecdotal book, John Melady combines archival material and interviews with many Korean veterans. The result is a vivid, intensely human account of the war from its first days, to heroic battles such as Kapyong, to fascinating and more obscure incidents such as the Koje prison camp insurrection, as well as personal stories of doctors, POWs, and journalists who witnessed the conflict, including Pierre Berton and Rene Levesque. The men from across Canada who served and fought were forever changed by what they saw and experienced in this faraway land. Army, navy, air force all receive their share of long-overdue praise in this important book, which was originally published in 1983 but is now fully revised.

Indexed for easy referencing. Foreword written by Ltgen Alpha Bowser, G-3, 1st Marine Division, Korea 1950-1951. Much of the information in this book about the Korean War has never before been published. Hills of Sacrifice is a magnificent history of 'Hawaii's own', the 5th RCT during the Korean War. It will be widely read, and deserves to be"". -- Governor Benjamin J. Cayetano, State of Hawaii ""At last, after 49 years, the best and most definitive book on infantry combat at the bayonet level in Korea. It grips the reader into the firestorm, fury, terror and grief of it all. Hills of Sacrifice is deeply researched, grimly detailed, personalized historiography of battlefield infantry action by American 'grunts' fighting determined North Korean and Chinese soldiers. This superb book is not for the faint-hearted. Graphic descriptions of the bloody details of close-in grunt infantry battle and the love of soldiers for one another"". -- LTGEN Harold G. Moore ""A hell of a read! Hills of Sacrifice explodes like a hand grenade and is riveting combat reportage. It's the most detailed account of the bloody Korean War that I have read. The reader is there in the trenches, with the Grunts, stopping massed attacks or storming enemy held hills. The 5th RCT was a great regiment, with top leaders, brave warriors, and this remarkable book captures their gallantry and sacrifice dead on target. A must read for anyone wanting to know the Grunt's heroic story from the Korean War and how a gallant regiment became the Fire Brigad of the KoreanWar"". -- COL David H. Hackworth ""

Book excerpt: Last Hill of Arirang is the story of Yu Sun Yi, a Korean woman of irrepressible spirit and strength, and the men, her grandfather, father, husband and sons, whom she defied, dominated, comforted and loved throughout overwhelming political events. Beginning in 1910 with the annexation of Korea by Japan and continuing through the brutal suppression that followed, she experiences the turmoil of cultural change and devastating war. Dreams of her childhood seem impossible to attain. In her time women are destined to be "inside people" Yet her strong will guides Sun Yi and her family through years of imprisonment, banishment, and even loss of home and livelihood. Here is an epic story of one family, entwined with fascinating details of traditional customs in the land long known as "The Hermit Nation," and of an indomitable country that will not be conquered.
