Hold Back the Night

"Hold Back the Night" is a story about the withdrawal from the Korean reservoirs during the very worst days of the Korean War. The book, believably written, tells a beautiful story of men from Dog Company, a tough, battered unit of U.S. Marines. Their pride and courage made the long, bitter retreat from Changjin Reservoir to Hungnam on the Korean coast possible. This is the story of courage and dedication under fire and the interactions and bonds that emerge between people under continuous threat of attack.
