Publisher's Description of Korean War: Limits of American Power
The words of President Truman, General MacArthur, Senator McCarthy, President Eisenhower, and others, reporter's stories, and letters from soldiers shed light on the war, which began as a civil war between Korean nationalists and escalated into a struggle between the U.S. and Communist China, throwing America into the first major showdown of the Cold War.

The third volume in Diana Waring's history course begins with the Napoleonic era and continues through the early years of the Cold War (1800 - 1950s). Discover how God works through the lives of specific people, through events the world over, and through His Church - even in our tumultuous modern time.
