Once termed a police action, the Korean War was fought by massed armies on a constricted field of operations. Its battles were as intense as those of any other war this century. The Medics' War views this conflict from an uncommon angle. It documents the efforts of American Army doctors, nurses, and enlisted medics to save life and repair the damages wrought by wounds and disease. Though the charges of biological warfare made at the time are shown to have no foundation, the disease-ridden environment of wartime Korea aided the side with the best medical care. The real MASH clearly emerges in this study, along with the variety of technical innovations produced by the conflict that have advanced medical science. The perspective of The Medics' War is an enlightening one, showing that the compassionate treatment of both United Nations and enemy wounded preserved human values in the midst of bitter, unforgiving strife. Civilian and military readers alike will gain from it a deeper understanding of the processes, destructive and reconstructive, that together made up the human experience of the Korean War. William A. Stofft Brigadier General, USA Chief of Military History

The Doctrines of American Foreign Policy analyzes diplomatic 'doctrines' to regulate relations with other countries. The author focuses on eight of the doctrines: Monroe Doctrine, Open Door Principle, and the doctrines of Truman, Eisenhower, Johnson, Nixon, and Carter Administrations. He provides an analysis of these doctrines, and then in a concluding chapter, examines their common characteristics and assesses their overall performance on how they have obstructed and contributed to the American diplomatic objectives.

The Doctrines of American Foreign Policy: Their Meaning, Role, and Future

Though highly regarded and widely heralded, Albert Cowdrey’s short stories have mostly appeared in digest magazines and reprints have been sporadic. This collection gathers fourteen of his finest tales. 
These narratives show much of the breadth and all of the appeal of Cowdrey’s fiction. They vary from historical fantasies set six hundred years ago to science-fictional adventures in the distant future. The characters are a wondrous crew of sheriffs, soldiers, academics, bookstore owners, government agents, and a ne’er-do-well nephew and the stories vary in tone from the comic to the creepy, from the pensive to the pulse-pounding. 
Among these stories are: 
’Queen for a Day’, the World Fantasy Award-winning tale of murder in the Crescent City. 
’Twilight States’, a dark story about brothers, psychologists, and an old pulp magazine. 
’The Tribes of Bela’, in which Colonel Kohn journeys to the planet Bela to investigate a death in the mining colony . . . only to be drawn into something much bigger. 
’The Overseer’, wherein the glories and hardships of Reconstruction come to life amid deep secrets. 
With ten more tales that range from the World War battlefront to the halls of academe, from Scandinavia to outer space, this book keeps the reader in anticipation of what will come next. While Albert Cowdrey’s fiction has been likened to that of Saki and Bloch, of Tiptree and Dahl, the wit, adventure, philosophy, and supernatural investigations here are uniquely Albert Cowdrey, and they’re sure to delight his many fans and bring many more into the fold.
