- More about The Farthest Valley: Escaping the Chinese Trap at the Chosin Reservoir
The Fifth and Seventh Marine Regiments were surrounded by the Chinese 9th Army Group in a surprise attack at Chosin Reservoir in North Korea, but they managed to escape after a week of brutal combat.
Format: Hardback
Length: 384 pages
Publication date: 10 October 2024
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing PLC
American Marines, thousands of miles from home, found themselves knee-deep in snow and under a leaden sky as they watched more snow settle onto the frozen ground, glittering in the fading light. Suddenly, the still Korean night roared to life with the sound of Chinese mortar fire, signaling the start of a surprise attack by the Chinese 9th Army Group at the Chosin Reservoir in what is now North Korea. The Fifth and Seventh Marine Regiments, vastly outnumbered and outgunned, were besieged and surrounded by the Chinese forces, facing defeat and death as a near certainty. However, their improbable escape after a week of brutal combat required all the Marines' fighting skills and supreme combat leadership.
