by Anthony Sobieski (Author)
The battle of White Horse lasted ten days, with many lives lost. This story concentrates on the first two days of the battle, as recounted by Joe Adams, Jack Callaway, and the rest from the 213th Field Artillery Battalion who were there. These two days coincide with the letters and personal remembrances of these men and this story is based on their real life experiences. The events and people are real, coming from those personal interviews, declassified documents and historical reference. What they went through is real, documented history. This is a 'story' in that their actual minute-by-minute interactions and words have been interpreted, all with the spirit and intent of their every word. Not one of them has ever bragged about what they did or thought of themselves as some great warrior soldier. Everyone simply did what they had to do, and that there was no glory in it. Not just another war story, this is an attempt to put the reader 'there' in the thick it, to be a participant in battle and to feel what it was like to be in the Forgotten War. Exploding artillery shells, bullets striking targets, the eeriness of flares drifting down over a battlefield, breathing the dust of trenches on a hill in the middle of a far off place. Taking the reader out of their seat and putting a rifle in their hands, this story transports you a thousand miles away from your surroundings to an artillery battery receiving 'incoming mail', a trench line where death is around every corner, and a bunker on a hill where some of the most violent combat takes place. This book lets you feel, taste and smell it like it was, brutal, unforgiving, and above all, a cold hard reality for those that were there.

Q. How much is shipping, and how long does it take?
All of our products are shipped from Korea to the rest of the world, so a global shipping fee applies to every order. Shipping costs and delivery times vary depending on your country.
To see exactly how much shipping costs and how long it takes to reach your country, just click Calculate and see the shipping cost below the Add to Cart button.
Q. When will my subscription box ship?
Our subscription and curated boxes (Daebak Box, Daebak K-Beauty Box, SnackFever, and Collab Box) ship right after a 2–3 business day processing period from the time your order is placed.
Q. How do recurring subscriptions work?
For recurring subscriptions, your next order is automatically created exactly 3 months after your original order date. Once that order is generated, it ships after the same 2–3 business day processing period.
Q. ⚠️ Important: Can I order products from different brands together?
Please order items from the same brand together, and avoid mixing different brands in a single order.
Each Korean brand we carry uses its own shipping carrier, so combining products from different brands in one order may result in higher shipping costs. For example, Brand A may ship via FedEx while Brand B ships via Korea Post, meaning a mixed order is handled as separate shipments.
To keep your shipping costs as low as possible, we recommend placing a separate order for each brand.
