Annapolis, Maryland, U.S.A.: Naval Inst Pr, 2000. 243 pages, illus, maps, notes, bibliog, index. Through the extensive use of Department of Defense and Central Intelligence Agency documents declassified exclusively for this work and from interviews he conducted with veterans of the savage air-land-sea campaigns in North Korea and Manchuria, Michael Haas takes the reader into a world still unknown to most historians. It is a disturbing account by any standard, replete with tragedy, heroism, and scandal. But of special concern are the author's revelations of the bitter bureaucratic feuding that occurred between senior U.S. Army officers and CIA station chiefs in Japan, feuding that Haas says squandered the sacrifices made by Korean partisans and their American advisers, British commandos, U.S. Navy frogmen, and CIA field operatives.
