Item description from seller

Glued binding. Paper over boards. x, [6], 313, [5] p. Illustrations. Map. Epilogue and Notes on Sources. Index. Inscription to David Burnham on half title by Martha Mendoza. From an on-line posting: "David Burnham--a writer, investigative reporter and researcher--is the co-founder and co-director of the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC). For the last three decades he has specialized in the critical examination of numerous government enforcement bureacracies including the New York Police Department, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Environmental Enforcement Agency, the Internal Revenue Service, the Food and Drug Administration and the Justice Department. A reporter with The New York Times from 1968 to 1986, Burnham has written several books and numerous magazine articles." The Bridge at No Gun Ri is a non-fiction book about the killing of South Korean civilians by the U.S. military in July 1950, early in the Korean War. Published in 2001, it was written by Charles J. Hanley, Sang-hun Choe and Martha Mendoza, with researcher Randy Herschaft, the Associated Press (AP) journalists who wrote about the mass refugee killing in news reports that won the 2000 Pulitzer Prize for investigative journalism and 10 other major national and international journalism awards. The book looks in depth at the lives of both the villager victims and the young American soldiers who killed them, and analyzes various U.S. military policies including use of deadly force in dealing with the refugee crisis during the early days of the war."
