아마존 독자 리뷰:

"These books have a perfect balance of text and pictures that makes them easy to read, interesting, and informative. Also, the voice in the writing makes the content easy to understand. They do a great job of telling the story of Korea, starting from the Neolithic times, as well as narrating the stories of the various Korean dynasties in a clear, organized way. A very welcome change compared to the Eurocentric history classes taught in my high school. Would highly recommend!" 

"사진과 그림이 완벽한 조화를 이루고 있어 가독성이 좋고 흥미를 더하며 유익하네요. 이해하기 쉬운 어조로 쓰여 있다는 점도 좋습니다. 신석기시대부터 시작해 수많은 왕조를 거쳐간 한국의 역사를 체계적이면서도 명료히 설명하고 있는 부분이 정말 훌륭하군요. 제가 다니는 고등학교에서는 주로 유럽사만 다루고 있는데 이 책을 접하니 참 신선합니다. 꼭 한 번 읽어보세요!"

"Its a great book. Covers very well (For a high school level history book) all the most important events in Korean history. It has very well done illustrations and is overall a great set. I am very satisfied, and my students also like it very much."

"훌륭합니다. 한국 역사의 주요 장면들을 꼼꼼히 다루고 있습니다(고등학생들이 읽기에 적합합니다). 삽화의 수준도 높으며 여러 면에서 양질의 도서입니다. 제겐 아주 만족스러운 책이었으며 학생들도 아주 좋아했습니다."

Letters from Korean History, Korean Version

Letters from Korean History, English Version

Letters from Korean History was originally published in Korea, 2002, revised 2009, and has been distributed more than 3.5 million copies. 

The Korean version of Letters from Korean history is well kwon as its unique writing style. The entire book's written as a long letter from a mother, who wants to explain Korean history in an easy way, and she wrote the book to her own daughter trying to make her history lesson more interesting and understandable with mother's warm words. The english version of Letters from Korean History took a form of a letter like the original version and also rewritten for wider range of readers, from teenager to young adult. 

Making any Korean book accessible to readers of English through translation is a privilege. The same goes for Letters from Korean History. In a series of letters addressed to a young reader overseas, the author adopts a conversational style of writing that conveys the ups and downs, ins and outs of Korean history with ease. 

- Ben Jackson,  from Translator's forword to Letters from Korean history

* 5 features and benefits of Letters from Korean History 

1. Unlike most introductions to Korean history, Letters from Korean History takes a theme-based approach: 
each theme functions as a window onto a particular period. The use of several different windows offering various perspectives onto the same period is meant to help the reader form her or his own more complete picture of that part of history.

Vo.1: From prehistory to United Silla and Balhae 

2. Letters from Korean History places equal emphasis on aspects such as culture, everyday life, society and social segments with habitually low historical profiles, such as women and children: 
This is an important difference to conventional introductory histories, which naturally tend towards narratives centered on ruling classes by prioritizing political history. 

Vo.2: From the Later three Kingdoms to Goryeo 

3. Also attempted to portray Korean history not as that of a single nation in isolation but as part of world history as a whole, and to adopt a perspective that places humans as just one species in the universe and nature: 

This is why the first letter begins not with prehistory on the Korean Peninsula but with the birth of the human race on Earth. The connection with world history is maintained throughout the five volumes, in which Korea’s interactions, relationships and points of comparison with the rest of the world are constantly explored.

Vol.3: Joseon - From founding to later years 

4. Unlike most general histories, which make passing references to characters and dates, 
it depicts Korea’s past through a series of engaging stories:

It is my hope that these will help readers feel like direct witnesses to historical scenes as they unfold. All content is based on historical materials, either in their original form or adapted without distortion. Sources include key texts such as Samguk sagi (“History of the Three Kingdoms”), Samguk yusa (“Memorabilia of the Three Kingdoms”), Goryeosa (“History of Goryeo”) and Joseon wangjo sillok (“Royal Annals of the Joseon Dynasty”), as well as a variety of literary anthologies, letters, journals and epigraphs. 

Vol.4: From late Joseon to the Daehan Empire 

5. Each Letter contains a historical episode in its own right, and can be chosen and read according to the reader’s particular area of interest: 
I hope that readers will not feel obliged to start at the beginning of Volume I and plow all the way through. The text is complemented by plenty of photos and illustrations, giving a more vivid sense of history - reading the captions that accompany these should enhance the sense of historical exploration.

Vol.5: From the Daehan Empire to North-South rapprochement 

I very much hope that this book will become a useful source of guidance for young readers, wherever they may be.
