Non biased books on North Korea? (If any exist)
Non biased books on North Korea? (If any exist)
Avid reader, especially political non-fiction. Interested in reading something about North Korea but am anticipating most books containing exaggerated and unverified claims and just being biased overall.
Was wondering if anyone knew any good, unbiased books on North Korea? If any actually exist?
You're viewing a single thread.
Patriots, Traitors and Empires: The Story of Korea's Fight for Freedom by Stephen Gowans is a pretty good book. Been a while since I read it but it was very eye opening and a good read.
Patriots, traitors and empires is the book to read from a counter-history perspective, but it may be too biased against the quislings.
The book is built on Bruce Cumings books on korean history, so if you want a less biased book you can read Cumings work.
Is there a particular book of Cumings' you recommend? He has a few.
Koreas place in the sun
Thanks!
