The heart of the conflict was a civil war between a population arbitrarily divided by colonization and the global geopolitics at the end of the Second World War.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChallenging the widely perpetuated Western narrative and getting to the core of the Korean conflict is no easy feat. From assumptions that the outbreak of war was a deliberate act of communist aggression, to the notion that Eisenhower and Truman's constant threats of atomic annihilation broke the Chinese and North Korean spirit and led to the signing of the armistice, everything needs to be dissected and reviewed on its own factual merit to fully understand the nature of the war. This guide seeks to pull this narrative curtain and peek behind at the truth of the matter, tracing the history of the war back to the Japanese occupation and uncovering the root of Korean nationalism that stirred the nation into the frenzy of civil war in 1950.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is about an often-forgotten war, fighting for its place in history between the two behemoths of the Second World War and the Vietnam War, which was no less significant, no less destructive, and had no less impact on the global politics of the twentieth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSome of the topics covered in this book include: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe Japanese Ascendency: 1910-1945\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eA Korea Divided: The US Occupation of the South\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe Forging of the North Korean State\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFirst Blood: The Outbreak of War\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eStrike Hard and Strike Fast: The US Retreat\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBittersweet Victories: American Revival and China's Decision to Cross the Yalu\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHow Do You Solve a Problem Like China?\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe Bloody Ceasefire and Looming Bomb\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe Legacy of the Korean War\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAnd a Great Deal More that You Don't Want to Miss out on \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGet the book now and learn more about the Korean War \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 130\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.38 x 8 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 09, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45667003367526,"sku":"9781647485511","price":40.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/V3VYaG5QSTdJcDdCRDFYS0pCb0FiZz09.webp?v=1779983425","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/korean-war-a-captivating-guide-to-korean-war-history-hardcover","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
