The Origins of the Korean War, Volume II Book Bruce Cumings

The Origins of the Korean War, Volume II by Bruce Cumings is the second volume of a study of the origins of the Korean War.

Key themes include:

• Empire and militarism in East Asia
• The Pacific War and its consequences
• Korea and the Cold War
• Memory, recovery and the modern region

Who should read it: readers interested in Japanese and Korean history and the Second World War in Asia.
