The Reservoir

Rate this book
Summer, 1950. In America, life is good. When North Korea unexpectedly invades South Korea, America is not prepared for the war she must fight. Many men, veterans of World War Two who now have families and comfortable civilian jobs, are unexpectedly called back into service to fight their second war. The Reservoir follows a unit of U.S. Marines from the United States to Korea, where they fight at Inchon, Seoul, and in the Battle of the Chosin Reservoir. Some of them are reluctant warriors, while others have something to prove. They do their duty and endure. In the end, simply surviving is their victory.

Very Good Read

Some weeks back I read the Last Stand of Fox Company and wanted to continue reading on Korea/Chosin Reservoir. I enjoyed this latest book, The Reservoir, quite a lot.
I wasn’t able to initially warm up to the Jimmy story, however, his progression did make it, ultimately, an interesting element. Otherwise — with my most important rating element for a book being, does it keep me engaged and wanting to find out what happens — The Reservoir hits on all 5 stars for engaging this reader.
