Korea's Fight for Freedom

Book excerpt: The author of this book, Frederick Arthur MacKenzie (1869–1931), was a correspondent active in the early 20th century. For several years he worked with the Daily Mail as a traveling correspondent in the Far East. one of the few Western correspondents that wrote about the Korean resistance against Japan during the Japanese Rule. The work presented here is the display of his braveness and love for truth. To create this account of the war, MacKenzie had to escape into the interior of the Korean opposition, although it was extremely dangerous.
