An account of the personal recollections and experiences of the men who fought in the Korean War. Signed and inscribed by author to a contributor to the book, a San Francisco-based veteran of the Korean war. Includes biographies of those whose oral histories are recorded. "No Bugles, No Drums recreates the full panorama of the Korean conflict through the valor and anguish of the American and international soldiers and officers who participated in each of the phases and major battles of the war. [...] takes you into frozen foxholes and atop the fiery hilltops of Korea, presenting a compelling portrait of men at war, fighting far from Main Street's parades and fanfare, daily confronting the savage, all-too-human face of war." --Jacket copy
