I offer a very special thank-you to Gail B. Shisler, Fairfax, Virginia, the granddaughter of General Oliver P. Smith. Shisler is the author of an outstanding biography of the general (For Country and Corps) and made herself available to me for advice and consultation. She graciously provided me with CDs of General Smith’s verbal, unpublished memoirs, which were an essential tool in the telling of this story.
And I am forever indebted to the members of the Chosin Few and the survivors of Task Force Faith, many of whom have passed away during the writing of this book.
