Based on a diary detailing a 900-mile journey by sedan chair through southern Korea in the 1880s--written by one of the few Westerners at the time who could speak Korean-- Inside the Hermit Kingdom is an account like no other. It gives readers a rare glimpse of the kingdom of Choson in its pristine condition, before the intrusion of the outside world.
