The Far Side of the World by James Durney

August 29, 2024 By P Commane

The full title of the book is The Far Side of the World – Irish Servicemen in the Korean War 1950-53.

Within days American ground troops were committed to Korea and with them many Irishmen. Several weeks later more Irishmen arrived as Britain committed a brigade to the UN cause.

The Korean War dragged on for another three years resulting in millions of casualties.

This is the first book to access the involvement of Irish soldiers in the armed forces of America, Britain and Australia.

The book includes photos, a map and a list of all soldiers and civilians from Ireland killed in the conflict.
