Many years ago, before arriving here, I read a book about Korea (in English) published early in the 20th
century that was mainly about life in Kanghwa Island and I wonder if anyone recognizes it and is able to
indicate the title and author? It was very precise in its evocations of daily life, the traces of the
French and American attacks still visible, and it included several plates. I would very much like to read
it again. Even a photocopy...
