The Mastery of the Far East

""The Mastery of the Far East"" is a historical account of the transformation of Korea and the rise of Japan to supremacy in the early 20th century. Written by Arthur Judson Brown, an American missionary who lived in Korea and Japan for over 30 years, the book provides a firsthand perspective on the political, economic, and social changes that occurred in these countries during this period. The book begins with a brief overview of Korea's history, including its annexation by Japan in 1910, and then delves into the various reforms and modernizations that took place under Japanese rule. Brown also explores the rise of Japanese imperialism and how it impacted the rest of Asia. He provides insight into the cultural and religious differences between Korea and Japan, as well as the challenges faced by the Korean people as they struggled to maintain their identity and independence.
