具体描述
Up until now, the Korean War has been the black hole of modern American history. "The Coldest Winter" changes that, giving readers a masterful narrative of the political decisions and miscalculations on both sides. He charts the disastrous path that led to the massive entry of Chinese forces near the Yalu, and that caught Douglas MacArthur and his soldiers by surprise. He provides astonishingly vivid and nuanced portraits of all the major figures - Eisenhower, Truman, Acheson, Kim, and Mao, and Generals MacArthur, Almond, and Ridgway.At the heart of the book are the individual stories of the soldiers on the front lines who were left to deal with the consequences of the dangerous misjudgments and competing agendas of powerful men. We meet them, follow them, and see some of the most dreadful battles in history through their eyes. As ever, Halberstam was concerned with the extraordinary courage and resolve of people asked to bear an extraordinary burden. Contemporary history in its most literary and luminescent form, "The Coldest Winter" provides crucial perspective on the Vietnam War and the events of today.

读后感
快要看完这本重现战争的残酷的书了，尽管其中描述中国军队的部分相对于较少，但是提到了过去中国由于军事装备的落后只能在人头上占优势的作战方式，真是心寒，那么多活生生的生命在炮火的轰炸下灰飞烟灭，更是觉着朝鲜战争完全是一次地狱式的折磨，人的生命在那里犹如草...
评分580页的厚书终于读完了。前面有一部分读得我咬牙切齿地几乎放弃，后面又欲罢不能。读后胡思乱想奇多。 首先，敬佩作为普利策奖得主的作者主文笔甚是了得，那么繁杂的事件，安排调度得当，紧紧抓住读者，紧扣关于对朝鲜战争策略的反思，对战事只写了几个关键战役，而对其它战...

评分所有的事情都围绕着朝鲜-----这个弹丸之地，美中苏的角逐于此，无力顾其它，台湾得以苟安，日本得以发展，东亚由此完成布局，即使冷战结束以后，这个格局依然没有改变，苏联早亡，日本南韩台湾雄起，美国渔利。 历史的可笑之处在于所有的当局者都认为自己是唯一正确的，而别人...
