520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc "This book tries to report the main phases of the Korean war as I saw it. With the exception of four weeks in November, I was almost continuously at the war fronts from June through December. I have selected the episodes and anecdotes that I thought pictured the war most realistically. I have tried to show how the enemy struck, how we fought back, and what we have learned about our weaknesses, our strength, and our future." Marguerite Higgins, Seoul, Jan 1, 1951.
