5.0 out of 5 stars
an exciting account of the withdrawl of the 1st Marine Divis,
By "khalil1021" (pittsburgh, pa) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The March to Glory (Paperback)
as with his previous books, Mr. leckie has created a personal, and down to earth look at one of the most heroic battles in history. mr. leckie brings the reader right into the foxholes of the men who refused to surrender to overwhelming forces in the frozen highlands of north korea. i believe it a must read for anyone who is a student of history, of gallentry, and a believer in honor.

5.0 out of 5 stars
CHOSIN CAMPAIGN,
By James L. Woolridge "Wooly in PSL, FL." (Sunny Florida) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: The March to Glory (Paperback)
After reading another very good book on Korea, I was drawn to reread the best there is, Robert Leckie's THE MARCH TO GLORY. Leckie was not only an noted historian but was a member of the FIRST MARINE DIVISION and fought in WWII including Guadalcanal. Know one writes about Marines better than Leckie. This book deals with is brutal Chosin Reservoir campaign of the Korean War fought in miserable bitter cold of the 1950 winter. It lets the reader see the personal side, the human side of the fight and the troops. We see what it was like to resist human wave attacks. This book is one of the best. Written back in 1960, don't be fooled because it is old. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
