Ebb and Flow records an important chapter in the Korean War. It
begins with the last weeks of the pell-mell rush of United Nations
forces to the Chinese border and goes on to describe in great
detail the test of American military leadership and resources posed
by the taxing retreat of the Eighth Army and X Corps across the
frozen wastes of North Korea. It also examines the special problems
posed to a fighting army during the deadly months of stalemate in
the summer of 1951. The part of the war described in this volume
raises many questions for the military strategist and provides a
treasure trove of lessons for the student of the art of war. The
book emphasizes the limitations imposed by terrain and weather on
the fighting capabilities of an American army facing surprise
attack from a large, disciplined enemy. The operations it describes
in such careful detail will help vivify the principles of war for
those who would study the profession of arms.
