Inchon Landing: MacArthur's Korean War Masterstroke, Sept.

Van Tonder. The initial wave of North Korean troops, crossing the 38th Parallel in June 1950, pressed the U.S.-led allied forces all the way to the southern perimeter of the peninsula. In response, General Douglas MacArthur initiated a daring amphibious assault at Inchon — a campaign that began on September 15 and ended in such unexpected success, as chronicled in this captivating title, that Seoul fell and South Korean troops returned safely to their capital. 128 pages, 6"x 9", softcover.
