Reviews
'The book's greatest strength lies in the way in which it covers broad and challenging themes - identity, masculinity, popular opinion, citizenship, and memory, to name just a few - while never losing sight of the centrality of the war itself. It consistently knits together the larger discussions and grounds them firmly within the historical context of the early Cold War. In this way, the book makes a significant contribution to scholarship on this topic and goes some way to ensuring that the Korean War will not be forgotten.'
Charlie Hall, University of Kent, Journal of Contemporary History Book Reviews, Vol. 54, Issue 3
'Huxford's is [therefore] both an essential book for those interested in the Korean War and the domestic history of the Cold War. It is also a fruitful jumping-off point for future work on how the Cold War was experienced and how historians can approach the topic.'
