The Truth About Korea is a non-fiction book written by Carlton Waldo Kendall and published in 1919. The book provides a comprehensive and detailed account of the history, culture, and society of Korea at the time. Kendall, who was a journalist and correspondent for the New York Times, spent several years in Korea and used his firsthand experience to provide an accurate and unbiased portrayal of the country. The book covers a range of topics, including the political and economic situation in Korea, the country's relationship with neighboring nations, the role of religion and education in society, and the customs and traditions of the Korean people. Kendall also delves into the country's history, from its ancient origins to its more recent struggles with colonization and foreign influence. One of the key themes of the book is the impact of Japan's occupation of Korea, which had begun in 1910. Kendall criticizes Japan's treatment of the Korean people and argues that the occupation has had a negative effect on the country's development and progress. Overall, The Truth About Korea is a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning about the history and culture of Korea in the early 20th century. Kendall's writing is engaging and informative, and his insights provide a unique perspective on a country that was largely unknown to Western audiences at the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
