{"product_id":"the-sea-war-in-korea","title":"The Sea War in Korea","description":"\u003cp\u003eOriginally published in 1957  just a few years after the war ended  the book was the first full accounting of the U.S. Navys role in the Korean conflict to be written for the general public. It is a subject that has not received the attention it deserves mostly because the larger more dramatic naval operations of World War II overshadowed those in Korea. Yet  as authors Malcolm Cagle and Frank Manson show  sustaining the war would have been impossible without the U.S. Navy. With the navys command of the sea  United Nations forces were able to slow and eventually stop the communist invasion. The authors argue that without American naval dominance in the waters around Korea and the vital logistics tail that stretched halfway around the world  the tide-turning amphibious landing at Inchon would never have materialized  and the countless insertions  extractions  naval gunfire support operations  and naval aviation missions would not have occurred. They also maintain that in the heightened tensions of the time  the Seventh Fleet served as a deterrent to the temptation of widening the war elsewhere in the Pacific.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44945909383221,"sku":"ByrdShop_1557502161","price":52.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781557502162.jpg?v=1769914949","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-sea-war-in-korea","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
