<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" ><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;"><DIV>Another: "The Kwangju Uprising: Eyewitness Accounts of Korea`s Tiananmen," edited by Henry Scott-Stokes and Lee Jae Eui, contains accounts by journalists who were there, Korean and foreign. No, I didn`t write one of them, but my picture appears in the book interviewing a victim in a hospital. And "Korea Witness: 135 Years of War Crisis and News on the Korean Peninsula," which I edited along with Choe Sang-hun, has a a section on Kwangju, not to mention a piece in which I recounted a little of my experiences there. Incidentally, some years later, I was at the Tiananmen Square uprising -- evoked eerie memories of Kwangju.</DIV>

<DIV>Hello.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have a student doing a research on the U.S. involvement in the Gwangju Uprising. Other than Linda Lewis' book, I am not familiar with any other sources. Could anyone recommend where to find the discussions of American role in Gwangju? Thank you very much.</DIV>
