The Korean War is a forgotten war. It took place many thousands of miles away, while life in Britian carried on as normal.

Anthony Farrar-Hockleys book, The edge of the Sword, gives a vivid picture of life in Korea at the start of the conflict and as his time as a prisoner.

Max Hasting wrote a good general account but like some many histories of the war, the realse of 104 telegrams concerning the outbreak of the war by Boris yeltsin, the chapters on the origins of the war are dated.
