In the late 1980s, New York Times bestselling author Simon
Winchester set out on foot to discover the Republic of Korea --
from its southern tip to the North Korean border -- in order to set
the record straight about this enigmatic and elusive land.
Fascinating for its vivid presentation of historical and
geographic detail, Korea is that rare book that actually defines a
nation and its people. Winchester's gift for capturing engaging
characters in true, compelling stories provides us with a treasury
of enchanting and informed insight on the culture, language,
history, and politics of this little-known corner of Asia.
With a new introduction by the author, Korea is a beautiful
journey through a mysterious country and a memorable addition to
the many adventures of Simon Winchester.
