For better or worse, war has shaped America. These volumes in the Major Battles in US History series take readers step-by-step into well- and lesser-known conflicts. They begin with a visual overview, including a time line, map of troop movements, and chart of facts, such as leaders and the number of soldiers killed. The books then delve into the battle's decisive moments, its conclusion, and its impact on history. Inchon explains how Korea was split into two countries and North Korea invaded South Korea, in addition to presenting General Douglas MacArthur's calculated sea battle to recapture South Korea. Enhanced with archival photos from the battle, each volume also includes reproductions, maps, and other visuals. This action-packed series is a great supplement to classrooms and for budding history buffs.
