Joe Owen tells it like it was in this evocative story of a marine rifle company in the uncertain, early days of the Korean War. His powerful description of close combat in the snow-covered mountains of the Chosin Reservoir and of the survival spirit of his Marines provide a gritty real-life view of frontline warfare.

As a lieutenant who was with them from first muster in California, Owen was in a unique position to see the hastily assembled mix of some 200 regulars and raw reservists harden into a superb Marine rifle company. The action and narrative move fast as the company learns to fight under enemy fire, eat frozen rations, and keep pushing forward when its wounded and dead go down.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Owen's firsthand account is chilling and rather wonderful." (James Brady)
"Joe Owen's account of Baker-One-Seven's courageous ordeal is blunt, authentic, and compelling - a fitting tribute to his company and to his Corps." (Col. Joseph Alexander, USMC (ret.))

A great read, amazing Americans! Learned a lot about the Korean War. No idea what our troops went through.

Forgotten war

There is bound to be some overlap between any set of stories regarding a particular military campaign, and the encounter at Korea's Chosin Reservoir is no different. Having listened to the harrowing tales of bravery, hardship, and Marine stick-to-it-iveness in that classic tale, this was a step backward in terms of taking one's breath away with the horror of war in one of its most hellish times. But only a slight step.

For as the story unfolds, it becomes apparent that the brave remnants of Fox Company and the Marines in Colder than Hell have a shared destiny. I won't spoil it for those who have yet to read Last Stand, but the two books could almost be interwoven into one excellent epic tale.

Colder than Hell is a very fine book that as an avid reader of military history, I am proud to recommend.

Good companion to The Last Stand of Fox Company

This should be the first book for every Marine Officer. The story provided examples every leader of Marines should emulate. One of the best accounts of battle and demonstrates why the U.S. Marines our the best the nation has to offer. Proud to be apart of the gun club. Semper Fi, Dwayne Thomas, CWO3 USMC, Retired

A well told story about the hell of the Chosin Resevoir in the Korean War. What hardship these men had to go through was astounding.

The story is one man's perspective. A 2nd Lieutenant in the Korean War. The audio performance is one of the best I've heard in quite some time. Very much recommended. Especially for those who drive for a living, CDL holders or simple long commutes.

A near perfect narrative performance.

The audio sounds like it was recorded in the 50s; not saying its bad, just different.

Good story.

If you want a great 'you are there' type story of the Korean War. If you'd like to find a new appreciation for the trials and sacrifices that our combat soldiers go through, this is one of the best accounts possible. It will keep you on the edge of your seat and gain a new appreciation for what went on during the Korean Conflict, the errors, but no pointing political fingers. The death and carnage that was suffered. Maybe even gain an appreciation for how War truly is Hell.
