內容簡介 / Synopsis

 Published by Presidio Press in 1990, this monumental volume stands as a definitive visual chronicle of the Korean War. Authored by acclaimed military historian D. M. Giangreco, War in Korea, 1950–1953 presents the conflict with incredible clarity. The book is a comprehensive pictorial history featuring over 500 historical photographs, many shot almost exclusively by military photographers, capturing frozen instants of intense hand-to-hand combat, trench warfare, and the grueling conditions faced by troops. Alongside extensive coverage of the United States Army and Marine Corps activities, much attention is dedicated to the essential operations of the air and naval forces, as well as the contributions of Great Britain, Turkey, Australia, and other United Nations allies.

本書於 1990 年由 Presidio Press 出版，是記錄韓戰不可多得的權威視覺史詩巨著。由著名軍事歷史學家 D. M. 江格列科（D. M. Giangreco）撰寫，《韓戰 1950–1953》以極高的清晰度完整重現了這場衝突的始末。全書作為一部詳盡的圖解歷史，收錄了超過 500 幅極具價值的歷史照片，其中絕大多數由隨軍攝影師在第一線拍攝。這些畫面定格了激烈的白刃戰、慘烈的陣地壕溝戰，以及士兵們所經歷的極端殘酷環境。書中除了全面涵蓋美國陸軍與海軍陸戰隊的行動外，還特別著墨於起到了關鍵作用的空軍與海軍作戰，並忠實記錄了英國、土耳其、澳大利亞及其他聯合國軍盟友的英勇貢獻。

## 歷史背景與重要性 / Historical Background & Significance

 The Korean War began on Sunday, 25 June 1950, when seven North Korean divisions supported by Soviet-equipped armor invaded the southern Republic of Korea. Pushed into the background of national consciousness by the prolonged trauma of Vietnam, it has often been called the "Forgotten War". Giangreco’s work serves to correct this oversight by tracing the formal geopolitical development of the conflict—from the 38th Parallel that bisected the nation to the defensive stand at Pusan, the bold landing at Inchon, the retreat from the Yalu River, and the final bloody stalemate. Dedicated to Lieutenant Colonel Roy E. Appleman for his untiring effort to chronicle the war, this book meticulously illustrates the ground-level reality that cost millions of casualties, making it a foundational resource for collectors of modern military strategy and 20th-century geopolitical history.

 韓戰爆發於 1950 年 6 月 25 日（星期日），當時由蘇聯裝備武裝的北韓軍隊越過邊界，大舉入侵大韓民國南部。然而，由於後來越南戰爭帶來的長期創傷，這場戰爭在美國國民的集體記憶中逐漸被推向邊緣，常被稱為「被遺忘的戰爭」。江格列科的這部著作正是為了彌補這一歷史記憶的缺失。他系統性地追溯了這場地緣政治衝突的演變——從強行將這個半島國家一分為二的北緯 38 度線，到釜山防禦圈的殊死抵抗、仁川登陸的驚天逆轉、鴨綠江的撤退，直至最終陷入血腥的僵局。本書特別題獻給為記錄韓戰做出不懈努力的羅伊·E·阿普曼中校（Roy E. Appleman），通過詳實的文字與圖表展示了這場造成數百萬人傷亡的戰爭最真實的底層面貌，使其成為現代軍事戰略與20th世紀地緣政治收藏家不可或缺的基石文獻。
