Text of Note
"The Korean War: A Historical Dictionary is designed to provide brief but helpful information about all aspects of the war including units involved, the United Nations, political and military actions, significant sites and operations, and weapons used." "Written to be clear and understandable, it is the perfect research tool. Unlike existing dictionaries that focus on the individuals (political and military) involved or concentrate on military units and actions, this dictionary covers the wide range of topics necessary to inform both casual readers and scholars alike. Each item is cross-referenced to lead the researcher to other related topics."
