Excerpt from The Korea Review, 1905, Vol. 5 We have received from the publishers the above named volume and have read it with absorbing interest, for it bears not only upon the war in general but it contains a careful account of events in Korea which led up to, if they were not the main cause of, the conflict. After a short but appreciative introduction by Prof. Williams the author in his preface tells us in the following words what the object of the work is: This is an at tempt to present in a verifiable form some of the issues and the historical causes of the war now waged between Russia and japan, and the perusal of the book compels us to admit that the author has held himself down to his text with admirable repression. He has indulged in no passionate appeals for sympathy in the name of his nation nor has be asked the reader to accept any theories or deductions of his own. He has simply set down in a dispassionate and almost neutral manner the causes and issues of the war. We thought at first that if he did no more than this it would be rather stale reading, but we found it fascinating. The lucidity of his style and his luminous collocation of evidence make the book a pleasure to read. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
