Much shelf wear to the book with much more to the tips, corners, and edges of the jacket which is creased, sunned, with several short closed tears. Clean and unmarked. Second printing. From the flap: "This examination of the Korean War is set against the general background of the East-West conflict. There are two underlying themes: how the current totalitarian challenge can best be countered without precipitating nuclear war and secondly, the difficulties of waging limited war -- and of practicing Realpolitik -- in a democracy which until the nuclear age has always demanded a total, crusading response to its global enemies."Books and other items ship promptly with a tracking number and (generally over $15.00) jacket protectors if applicable. Clean recycled packing material will be used when possible. The Book Shed has a been a member of the Vermont Antiquarian Bookseller's Association since 1997.
