U. S. Invasion of Russia in 1919

Who knows of a good reference about the invasion of Russia through
Vladivostok by us Americans while the British and another American force
invaded through Murmansk to support the White Russians? I understand the
Valdivostok force moved west crossing almost half of Siberia in chasing the
Reds.

Timely coincidence; do a check at the Borders or barnes and Noble
websites. I was at Borders yesterday and saw a newly published book
about the US intervention in their military history section. Sorry,
did not get the title.

If you see it again, would you post it? I did a search on Amazon, and
all I got was out-of-print titles.

(My earlier post referred to Murmansk. I should have said Archangel.)

I'll check and get back to you. I did not find it on their website,
either. I saw it on the shelf and did not even take it down (had to
rush back out to meet the wife). Strange, but I am pretty sure it had
a blue cover (how's that for relevant memory? )

Yep, that's it. Went by Borders and got the info last night, but had
not gotten around to posting it. Thanks, Tom.

Kit Denton (Australian author who wrote a famous story of Breaker Morant)
had a novel about this time period based loosely upon a number of Australian
and other troops who were sent to fight after WWI.
It wasn't only the Brits and the US that fought in Russia at this time.

I highly recommend a book first published in1960, written by E.M. Halliday
titled, "The Ignorant Armies". I purchased the 1990 Bantam paperback
version.

I second that. Excellent book. Also published under a more lurid title a
couple years back, but it eludes me now.
