| Zusammenfassung: | Following the North Korean assault on the Republic of Korea in June of 1950, the invaders captured more than a thousand American soldiers and brutally executed hundreds more. American prisoners who survived their initial moments of captivity faced months of neglect, starvation, and brutal treatment as their captors marched them north toward prison camps in the Yalu River Valley. This book provides a detailed account of their captivity and offers insights into an ongoing issue: the conduct of prisoners in the hands of enemy captors and the rules that should govern their treatment. Relying on memoirs, trial transcripts, debriefings, declassified government reports, published analysis, and media coverage, plus conversations, interviews, and correspondence with several dozen former prisoners, the author seeks to correct misperceptions that still linger, decades after the prisoners came home. |

American prisoners who survived their initial moments of captivity faced months of neglect, starvation, and brutal treatment as their captors marched them north toward prison camps in the Yalu River Valley. This book provides a detailed account of their captivity and offers insights into an ongoing issue: the conduct of prisoners in the hands of enemy captors and the rules that should govern their treatment. Relying on memoirs, trial transcripts, debriefings, declassified government reports, published analysis, and media coverage, plus conversations, interviews, and correspondence with several dozen former prisoners, the author seeks to correct misperceptions that still linger, decades after the prisoners came home.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="504" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Includes bibliographical references (pages [249]-289) and index.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Korean War, 1950-1953</subfield><subfield code="x">Prisoners and prisons, North Korean.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Prisoners of war</subfield><subfield code="z">Korea (North)</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Prisoners of war</subfield><subfield code="z">United States.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85106978</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Prisonniers de guerre</subfield><subfield code="z">Corée du Nord.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">HISTORY</subfield><subfield code="x">Military</subfield><subfield code="x">Korean War.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Prisoners of war</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Korea (North)</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39QbtfRqdvrCY9mgGQBhg9Y4Y</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">United States</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJtxgQXMWqmjMjjwXRHgrq</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="647" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Korean War</subfield><subfield code="d">(1950-1953)</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39Qhp4vB9ppv8vWbVQf96JxBX</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="648" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">1950 - 1953</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="a">Latham, William Clark.</subfield><subfield code="t">A Cold Days in Hell : American POWs in Korea.</subfield><subfield code="d">College Station : Texas A & M University Press, ©2013</subfield><subfield code="z">9781603440738</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="830" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Williams-Ford Texas A&M University military history series.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2008175217</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="4" ind2="0"><subfield code="l">FWS01</subfield><subfield code="p">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield><subfield code="q">FWS_PDA_EBA</subfield><subfield code="u">https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=548302</subfield><subfield code="3">Volltext</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Askews and Holts Library Services</subfield><subfield code="b">ASKH</subfield><subfield code="n">AH28653518</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Coutts Information Services</subfield><subfield code="b">COUT</subfield><subfield code="n">24873144</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">EBL - Ebook Library</subfield><subfield code="b">EBLB</subfield><subfield code="n">EBL1132619</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">ebrary</subfield><subfield code="b">EBRY</subfield><subfield code="n">ebr10667682</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">EBSCOhost</subfield><subfield code="b">EBSC</subfield><subfield code="n">548302</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">ProQuest MyiLibrary Digital eBook Collection</subfield><subfield code="b">IDEB</subfield><subfield code="n">cis24873144</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Project MUSE</subfield><subfield code="b">MUSE</subfield><subfield code="n">muse26616</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">YBP Library Services</subfield><subfield code="b">YANK</subfield><subfield code="n">10305990</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="994" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">92</subfield><subfield code="b">GEBAY</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="912" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="049" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">DE-863</subfield></datafield></record></collection> |

The summer soldiers -- The tide turns -- The death march -- The warning -- Home by Christmas -- The reservoir -- The deadly winter -- Spring 1951 -- The pilots' war -- Mutual suspicion -- The pawns -- Freedom and recrimination. Following the North Korean assault on the Republic of Korea in June of 1950, the invaders captured more than a thousand American soldiers and brutally executed hundreds more. American prisoners who survived their initial moments of captivity faced months of neglect, starvation, and brutal treatment as their captors marched them north toward prison camps in the Yalu River Valley. This book provides a detailed account of their captivity and offers insights into an ongoing issue: the conduct of prisoners in the hands of enemy captors and the rules that should govern their treatment. Relying on memoirs, trial transcripts, debriefings, declassified government reports, published analysis, and media coverage, plus conversations, interviews, and correspondence with several dozen former prisoners, the author seeks to correct misperceptions that still linger, decades after the prisoners came home.
