Everlasting Flower: A History of Korea
Keith Pratt
South Korea a democratic high-tech Asian Tiger; North Korea a secretive dictatorship on Bush's notorious axis of evil', with a controversial nuclear program and a poverty-stricken population. This title tells the story of the common heritage from the ancient states of Old Choson and Wiman Choson to the relics of Cold War politics.
A timely history of Korea, a country divided until recently by the last active 'cold war' frontier, yet whose common historical and cultural links remain strong. It describes the physical and cultural landscape in which this history unfolds, dealing with religious identities and social aspects such as food and drink, as well as more controversial issues like punishment and torture.
