520    From an acclaimed historian comes the dramatic story of 
       the Christmas escape of thousands of American troops 
       overwhelmingly surrounded by the enemy in Korea's harsh 
       terrain. Just before Thanksgiving in 1950, five months 
       into the Korean War, General MacArthur flew to American 
       positions in the north and grandly announced an "end-the-
       war-by-Christmas" offensive despite recent intervention by
       Mao's Chinese, who would soon trap tens of thousands of US
       troops poised toward the Yalu River border. Led by marines,
       an overwhelmed Tenth Corps evacuated the frigid, 
       mountainous Chosin Reservoir fastness and fought a 
       swarming enemy and treacherous snow and ice to reach the 
       coast. Weather, terrain, Chinese firepower, and a four-
       thousand-foot chasm made escape seem impossible in the 
       face of a vanishing Christmas. But endurance and sacrifice
       prevailed, and the last troopships weighed anchor on 
       Christmas Eve. In the tradition of his Silent Night and 
       Pearl Harbor Christmas, Stanley Weintraub presents another
       gripping narrative of a wartime Christmas season.
