" And the Wind Blew Cold
The Story of an American
POW in North Korea
Richard M. Bassett,
with Lewis H. Carlson
A first-person account of the day-to-day struggles of an American held captive in North Korea.
When Richard Bassett returned from Korea on convalescent leave in 1953, he set down his experiences in training, combat, and captivity. Then he put the memoir away and tried to forget. More than twenty years later, hospitalized for acute Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, he once again faced his personal demons. Expanding the memoir to include his postwar struggles with the U.S. government and his own wounded psyche, the resulting comprehensive account is published here for the first time.
