About this book

Korea's Fight for Freedom Originally published in 1920, this is an exhaustive examnation of Korea's struggle for freedom from oppressive Japanese rule. 'In this book I describe the struggle of an ancient people towards liberty. I tell of a Mongol nation, roughly awakened from its long sleep, under conditions of tragic terror, that has seized hold of and is clinging fast to, things vital to civilization as wesee it, freedom and faith, the honour of their women, the development of their own souls. I plead for Freedom and Justice. Will the world hear?" Contents Include: Opening the Oyster, Japan Makes a False Move, The Murder of the Queen, the Idependence Club, New Era, Rule of Prince Ito, Abdication of Yi Hyeung, Journey to the Righteous Army, Last Days of korean Empire, Missionaries, Torture a la Mode, Independence Movement, The People Speak, Reigh of Terror in Pyeng-Yang, Girl Martyrs for Liberty, World Reactions Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.
