TY  - BOOK
AB  - This book is a retrospective look at the Korean War and the years of prosperity that followed. The photos and text tell the story from the perspective of both U.S. veterans who served in the conflict, and the Koreans who prospered from the freedom left in their wake. Beginning with the events that led up to the war, through the ensuing battlefields across the Korean Peninsula, and ultimately the transformation from a war-torn country into a prosperous nation, this book encapsulates why freedom is worth fighting for. While the Korean War is often referred to as the "forgotten war," the feature documentary included with this resource remembers and honors the men and women who fought, suffered, and sacrificed for a war-torn, distant land. Amidst the backdrop of rarely-seen archive footage from the Korean War, veterans share their stories, recollections, and thoughts about the Korean War 60 years later. The people of the Republic of Korea honor those brave veterans who served and sacrificed on their behalf. This is the story of a war remembered.--adapted from jacket.
