| 520 | _a"Korea" by Angus Hamilton is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the socio-political landscape of Korea during a pivotal time, particularly in relation to its interactions with foreign powers, specifically Japan and Russia. It delves into various aspects of Korean society, economy, and government, shedding light on its struggles for independence and modernization. The opening of the book begins with a discussion on the lack of accurate naval surveys of the Korean coastline, highlighting the treacherous navigation and the subsequent shipwrecks that it has caused for foreign mariners. Hamilton describes the islands and unique geographic features of Korea, illustrating the beauty and peril of its waters. Additionally, he touches upon the superstitions and beliefs of the Korean people regarding their lands and the historical significance of past navigators who made their way to Korea, foreshadowing the blend of admiration and apprehension that would characterize foreign-Korean relations in the historical context provided throughout the text.
