Review: The Imjin and Kapyong Battles

January 6, 2023 by Robert Mackay Leave a Comment

I reviewed this excellent book in late 2022 on Amazon. Here is what I had to say:

“Three battles, and only one a victory
I found this a great read, describing as it does three battles that took place in Korea in April 1951. A British brigade suffered a brutal defeat when caught off-guard by a Chinese force, while a Commonwealth brigade brought the enemy to a halt and turned it back. Canadian and Australian battalions on opposite sides of a river valley faced overwhelming odds and overcame them.
Highly recommended.”
