Striking Back: Combat in Korea, March-April 1951 is the second
book in a three-volume series about the Korean War, examining the
fighting that occurred during the late winter and early spring of
the war's first year. By the beginning of March, UN forces shifted
strategic focus from defense to offense. In April, the combination
of stabilized fronts and the enemy's failed attacks made conditions
ideal for launching combat offensives. The brutal nature and
strategic significance of these campaigns is described in the book,
which includes analysis of their profound influence on the
remainder of the war. William T. Bowers provides detailed battle
narratives based on eyewitness accounts recorded by Army historians
within days of the operations. Through his use of personal
accounts, official records, war diaries, and combat reports, Bowers
sheds new light on the conflict in Korea, making this volume a
must-read for military historians.
