Critics Review

Compelling, highly thought-provoking and timely. * James Holland *By turns insightful and exciting, profoundly researched and well written, this book forces us to rethink the Korean War completely… With the challenges posed by modern China and the choices faced by Ukraine today, this book has a pressing modern relevance. * Andrew Roberts, author of ‘Churchill: Walking with Destiny’ *A compelling new history of the Korean War… provides superb new insights, reflections, and lessons of enormous relevance to the contemporary situation in east Asia. Korea: War Without End is aptly titled and a must read for all who are focused on the Asia Pacific, the most important theatre in today’s world. * General David Petraeus, co-author of ‘Conflict: The Evolution of Warfare from 1945 to Gaza’ *An important book. * Professor Jeremy Black *Dannatt and Lyman have produced a brilliant military history which does justice to this complex and misunderstood war. * All About History *
