Reviews
"An important visual record of North Korea's history and development" -- Don Oberdorfer, author of The Two Koreas: A Contemporary History "Chris Springer in assembling this remarkable book had to come to grips with the fact that, because of official strictures that severely limited photography - there are few remaining photos from the period covered that were not disseminated by the regime's own propaganda authorities. - Anyone interested in North Korea's early days will want to own and peruse this revealing volume and shelve it next to the mere handful of earlier published pictorial histories..." -- Bradley K. Martin, author of Under the Loving Care of the Fatherly Leader: North Korea and the Kim Dynasty "Chris Springer's fascinating book is full of unseen, unexpected, and arresting photographs of North Korea in the midst of war and reconstruction. [...] These priceless photos are an indelible tribute to the resilience of the Korean people." -- Bruce Cumings, chairman of the History Department at the University of Chicago and author of Korea's Place in the Sun: A Modern History, Springer, an author and curator of the 2002 exhibition 'Democratic People's Republic of Korea' in Budapest, collects about 150 b&w photos from North Korea - many never published before - drawn from the Hungarian National Museum and the Military History Institute and Museum of the Ministry of Defense of Hungary and originally sent to Hungary by the Korean Central News Agency to garner sympathy during the war. They show the war, reconstruction, and the country's politics, people, agriculture, industry, culture, and education. Most of the photos are official. Information on the photos and their origins is included, and an essay by Bal'a'zs Szalontai, who teaches at Mongolia International U., Ulaanbaatar, details living conditions during the war.

AWESOME person to work with and couldn’t beat the shipping price!! Happy with purchase, well packaged, hard to find pieces. Carried them in my store for years b4 I sold in 2020. ALWAYS wanted to order me a set for 12-16, got 4 bowls once. Decided to finally order everything and it was discontinued and nothing left. Just recently decided to start looking for pieces. The description says Used and they are in very used condition with lots of scratches and some small marks. But love them anyway!!
