Brothers at War

<p>Distinguished American professor Sheila Miyoshi Jager interweaves international events and previously unknown personal accounts to give a brilliant new history of the war its aftermath and its global impact told from American Korean Soviet and Chinese sides. This is the first account to examine not only the military but the social and political aspects of the war across the whole region - and it takes the story up to the present day.</p><p>Drawing on newly accessible diplomatic archives and reports from South Korea's Truth and Reconciliation Comission Jager not only analyses top-level military strategy but also depicts on-the-ground atrocities committed by both side that have never been revealed. The most accessible up-to-date and balanced account yet written rich with maps and illustrations <i>Brothers at War </i>is the thrilling and highly original debut of a historian comparable to Max Hastings or Antony Beevor. It will become the definitive chronicle of the struggle's origins aftermath and global impact.</p>>
