Description

Discover Marguerite Higgins' story of courage and determination as she covered the Korean War in this gripping graphic novel. In 1950, Higgins became bureau chief for the New York Herald Tribune's Far East Asia desk, reporting live from the front lines amidst rising tensions on the Korean peninsula. Her eyewitness account of the invasion was a major newspaper sensation, but she faced numerous challenges, including being told women didn't belong on the frontlines. Higgins' bravery and perseverance ultimately led to her being allowed to continue reporting, thanks in part to General Douglas MacArthur's personal intervention. This graphic novel tells the true story of Higgins' remarkable experiences during the Korean War, shedding light on a pivotal moment in history that often goes unreported. Nathan Hale's Hazardous Tales series brings you thrilling and shocking stories from American history, presented in an engaging and accessible format.
