    The Mistaken history of the Korean War : what we got wrong then and now / Paul M. Edwards.
    by Edwards, Paul M. author.
    Jefferson, North Carolina : McFarland & Company, Inc., Publishers, [2018]
    Description: 
    xi, 186 pages ; 22 cm
    Contents: 
    Reluctant to call it war -- Post-traumatic perseverance -- Getting it straight -- Failed expectations -- Memory mistakes minimize mission -- No one was invited to the parade -- The shock of No Gun Ri -- The infidelity of the storytellers -- Brainwashed, yes, but who? -- Conclusion.
    Summary: 
    "Intense propaganda and limited press coverage during the Korean War, coupled with vague objectives and an incomplete victory, resulted in a popular narrative of partial truth and factual omission. Battlefield stories--essentially true but often missing significant information--added an element of myth. Drawing on a range of sources, the author reexamines the war's causes, costs and outcomes"---Provided by publisher.
