A gripping chronicle of courage and triumph against impossible odds . . .
North Korea - December 1950.
This is the incredible saga of the famed First Marine Division and its savage fighting withdrawal from the Chosin Reservoir to the North Korean port of Hungnam. Battling bitterly cold winds and temperatures that dropped to -25° Fahrenheit, the beleaguered Leathernecks blasted their way through roadblocks, ambushes, and wave after horrifying wave of Chinese Communist army attacks.
Robert Leckie brings to life all aspects of the epic struggle and the men who wrote one of the greatest chapters in Marine Corps history with their frozen blood.
