Through Our Eyes: Peace Corps in Korea 1966-1981, by William Harwood
This photograph book, while not a comprehensive collection of the early Peace Corps years in South Korea, includes numerous contributors, most notably Ambassador Kathleen Stephens’ (under President Obama) photographs from the late 1960s. Because it includes color images from the years of rebuilding when Peace Corps volunteers were both welcomed and regarded with superstition in the rural countryside, the book is an interesting testament to a slice of time in South Korea.
