    This is an outstanding seller to deal with. Fair prices that are more than reasonable in this economy. The product is in better condition than described, a true value for my money. Packaged and shipped well shows seller has concern for the products he sells to arrive in excellent condition. The seller is friendly and communicates timely with his customers. I highly recommend this seller and would do business again anytime. Thank you!

    Great seller! Item is what I ordered; good communication; shipped promptly; good value. NOTE TO SELLER: packaging was NOT appropriate for item; it was a flimsy, plastic envelope, with no stiff material to prevent creases. The book came with two deep creases that involved the *entire* item: one is a 1" triangle lower left side (bound edge); the other is a 7" triangle on upper right side (open edge).

    The cornerstone of Korean history

    Bought this book for a international relations class. It was truly a great overview of the history of the Korean peninsula. The book does a great job tracing the progress and growth of the two Koreas since the end of World War II. I found the book easy to read. I think the only drawback is that I need a flash card with key actors on it to keep track of them. With so many Korean figures having similar or same names, it often became difficult to remember which leader went with which period. The book does a great job of highlighting the influence that the U.S.A. had on South Korean development and North Korean behavior. If you want to study Korea then you should start with this book.
