"25 Albertype plates from photographs of Korea by Percival Lowell. Forbes Albertype Co., Boston, did the plates. This copy also contains two handwritten notes by Lowell laid in. One is of autobiograhical interest as Lowell gives a short resume in his career to this date. The pictures by him, as reproduced by the Forbes company, are striking and the tonal range of the collotypes is particularly effective in this book." -- Hanson collection catalog, p. 88.

Astonishing Experiences of a Family from 1870s to the 1960s, the Most Tragic Moments in Modern Korean History Twin brothers believe they were born into an inseparable destiny, only to be betrayed by fate. Kim Hyung-cha is conscripted to serve as a student soldier during the Japanese occupation under conditions of severe cruelty, while his older twin, Kim Hyung-tae, who remained in the North after liberation, goes missing in the turbulence of the Korean War. Kim Hyungcha joins the allied forces and advances to the Yalu River with the war, where he miraculously finds his brother’s family and manages to evacuate them to the South. Beyond stripping Korean contemporary history bare, this book forces an introspective look into the common yet esoteric concept of human destiny. Through a most peculiar interlacing of events and encounters that confront the family, leading towards an uncanny untangling of ties, readers will walk the “tunnel of destiny,” where mere coincidences are proven to be indisputable fate.

Over the last half-century, the Korean Peninsula has become a region that has stolen attention from all over the world. The world villagers have started to recognize Korea is not just a nation in the corner, but a ring of fire that could threaten their peace and safety directly or indirectly. So the concern about the conflict between the North and the South, from the Japanese rule to the Korean War to the Kim family era ━ Kim Il-sung, Kim Jung-il, and Kim Jong-un ━ to the abruptly bulged-out nuclear problem has grown bigger and bigger. So if anyone who wants to sympathize and look deeper into peace and danger beyond Asia to the globe needs to know about the heated Korean Peninsula first. And the readers of this book can learn the messages of Yin and Yang and Tragedy and Hope that are hard to find in other books.

Korea, June 1950. The "Land of the Morning Calm," freed at last from three and a half decades of Japanese colonial oppression, enjoys the fruits of peace and independence. In the southern countryside a small village celebrates its patriarch's sixtieth birthday, marking, according to tradition, his passage into old age. In the ancient capital of Seoul an American military advisor pursues his secret, reluctant Korean lover. And just to the north, just above a strange, arbitrary line called the 38th Parallel, a great army, well trained and equipped with Russian-made tanks, prepares in stealth for what its Communist commanders hope will be a brief and glorious war of liberation. "Like a shrimp caught between whales:" so Koreans describe the horrific events that followed. For, seeing their own national interests threatened, the great powers-the United States, Soviet Union, and China-transformed Korea into their bloody and tragic battleground. On this fiftieth anniversary of the Korean War, Land of the Morning Storm, presents the epic story of women and men, great and ordinary, powerful and powerless, Korean and American, caught up in this frothing, brutal maelstrom.

Since 2333 BC, long before the Western world was new, antiquity's name for Korea was Chosun...Land of the Morning Calm. In the fall of 1978, a small traditional jewelry shop in modern steel-and-glass Seoul, Korea, becomes Destiny's playground. Fate capriciously induces an American military officer to browse the store and, in so doing, meet an intriguing and lovely Asian woman. Foolishly, but helplessly, the Jason and Young fall in love. Their chance encounter and reluctant commitment initiates a tangled and haunting journey. For Jason, it is one of discovery not just of the woman he loves but her country and her people. Young seems too modern to be bound by the role assigned women in traditional Korean culture, so he dares to dream of taking her home to Alabama. But what does a woman do when her heart is torn between the man she loves and the family she honors?
