Product Information
When North Korean forces invaded South Korea on June 25, 1950, Otto Apel was a surgical resident living in Cleveland, Ohio, with his wife and three young children. A year later he was chief surgeon of the 8076th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital constantly near the front lines in Korea. Immediately upon arriving in camp, Apel performed 80 hours of surgery. His feet swelled so badly that he had to cut his boots off, and he saw more surgical cases in those three and a half days than he would have in|9780813120706|Product Identifiers

A good book but not the book the movie and TV series was based on.
It is a good interesting book and the surgeon who wrote it was actually there and tells a compelling story. However, this book is not what the 1970 MASH movie and TV series was based on so don't buy it if you're looking for the mash book they were based on. This book came out after the movie and TV series. If you want to read the original book the MASH movie and TV series was based on you want the MASH: A Novel About Three Army Doctors is a 1968 novel written by Richard Hooker (the pen name of former military surgeon H. Richard Hornberger). I was disappointed in this book only because I started noticing it kept referencing the movie and TV series and finally realized it hadn't been edited to mention them, it was written well after they came out. Still a good read but it's more a history of MASH and with lots of numbers and fewer details about the actual members of the MASH unit the author was in.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
