This inspiring story unfolds into the coldest winter ever recorded in North Korea, where survival required legendary feats of human endurance. Having lost his father, young Don Purkerson leaves the family farm in Oregon to join the United States Marines.Sent to Korea in a policing action for the United Nations, Private Purkerson marches into the shadow of death to find himself in several of the most significant battles in Marine Corps history. These include the Inchon landing, the taking of Seoul, the firefight at Sudong, the battle of Chosin Reservoir, and the midnight passage through Hell Fire Valley. Those lucky enough to return became known as The Chosin Few. Many suffered all their lives, not just from physical injuries, but from the deep emotional scars left by the nightmare they endured.This story focuses on the extraordinary events of 1950. Startling, grotesque, and heart-rending - this is how a small-town kid made a Promise, and how keeping it saved his life. (This is a good book for young and old, but the author recommends parental guidance for children under 14 years)

Etudes Penologiques Studies in Penology dedicated to the memory of Sir Lionel Fox, C.B., M.C. / Etudes Penologiques dédiées à la mémoire de Sir Lionel Fox, C.B., M.C.
During almost ten years I was in elose and frequent contact with Lionel Fox, both as Chiefofthe United Nations Section ofSocial Defence and as a friend. He was the permanent Chairman of the United Nations European ConsuItative Group on the Prevention of Crime and the Treatment of Offenders, and he came to New York as one of the members of the Ad Hoc Committee of Experts on the same matter in 1958 and was elected Chairman ofthat body; we were together at the First United Nations Congress and during the preparation of the Second; I went to London quite often and always managed to see him. We became good friends and feit we were working together from different angles for the same purpose. Unlike many senior civil servants ofwell developed countries Lione! Fox was really interested in international activities. He was fully aware that nowadays improvement and progress in the treatment of offenders requires more sources of information and learning than are offered by national tradition and methods. This partly explains the important role he played at international meetings, where his views were always respected.
