Awakening the Hermit Kingdom: Pioneer American Women Missionaries in Korea gives a focused look at the long-ignored subject, the pioneer women missionaries to the Hermit Kingdom, as the early missionaries often called Korea. Based largely on private papers and mission reports of the missionaries, the author explores the life and work of the American women missionaries in the first quarter century of the Protestant mission in Korea.

F. H. Turpin's 'History of the Kingdom of Siam and of the revolutions that have caused the overthrow of the empire' is a comprehensive study of the rise and fall of the Siamese Empire. Turpin provides detailed accounts of the political intrigues, power struggles, and cultural developments that shaped the history of Siam. Written in a scholarly and objective tone, the book combines historical analysis with firsthand accounts to offer a nuanced understanding of the complex dynamics at play in the region. Turpin's literary style is both engaging and informative, making this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in Southeast Asian history. The book is a significant contribution to the field of historical studies, shedding light on a lesser-known period of Siamese history. With meticulous research and compelling storytelling, Turpin presents a vivid portrait of a kingdom in turmoil. I highly recommend this book to readers seeking a deeper understanding of Siam's tumultuous past.
