Publisher's Synopsis
Korea's Fight for Freedom by Fred A. McKenzie Koreas Fight for Freedom from murder, plunder, outrage, incendiarism Mr. F.A. McKenzie has been abused in the columns of the Japanese press_ with a violence which, in the absence of any reasoned controversy, indicated a last resource. In answer to his specific charges, only one word has been uttered-'lies!' "Yet these charges embrace crimes of the first magnitude-murder, plunder, outrage, incendiarism, and in short all the horrors that make up tyranny of the worst description. It is difficult to see how Mr. McKenzie's sincerity could be called into question, for he, too, like many other critics of the new Administration, was once a warm friend and supporter of Japan. "In those days, his contributions were quoted at great length in the newspapers of Tokyo, while the editorial columns expressed their appreciation of his marked capacity. So soon, however, as he found fault with the conditions prevailing in Korea, he was contemptuously termed a 'yellow journalist' and a 'sensation monger.'"-From "Empires of the Far East" by F. Lancelot Lawson. London. Grant Richards.
