Title: Great companion for all Korean War Books & Movies
Review: "Fire @ Ice" is an interesting collection of facts about the Korean War. I found it to be of great assistance while watching movies and reading other books about the Korean War. It does an excellent job explaining the weapons systems used, and the various stages of the Korean Conflict. It is the first book I have seen with somewhat detailed descriptions of non-US forces which served with the UN. While it doesn't really tell a story or elaborate on the personalities involved, it fills in a lot of the little details many books about this early Cold War conflict overlook or neglect. Now whenever I see a Korean War movie listed on cable somewhere I consult with "Fire& Ice" to establish which phase of the war the movie takes place in, and to see if the forces portrayed are acurately depicted.
Is the review positive or negative?
