American Trophies: How US POWs Were Surrendered to North Korea, China, and Russia by Washington’s “Cynical Attitude”
The story of American heroes kept by our country's enemies and Washington's failure to recover them reads like a cross between a spy thriller and political expose. It uncovers decades of secrets and incompetence, right up to the Obama Administration, and reveals how Moscow, Beijing, and Pyongyang continue to thwart America today.
Based on years of research around the world by an investigative historian and former Special Forces officer teamed with the POW/MIA expert son of a missing Korean War flyer, it is by turns both enthralling and upsetting.
This book rips the lid off one of the most disturbing scandals in modern US history.
