From the North Korean Perspective (1976)

For the Independent Peaceful Reunification of Korea, by Kim Il Sung (TPB, 1976, $2)

"Due to the propaganda fed them by their government, the average American is completely ignorant of the true facts in Korea. Publication of the selection of some of the works of President Kim Il Sung on reunification is intended to help the American people become aware of the criminal role of the U.S. played in Korea, hopefully stimulating them to take action to force the Washington government to withdraw its 40,000 troops and nuclear weapons and stop the financial and political aid to the south Korean puppet regime."

Wow, where would I start to comment on that! I wonder if Kim Il Sung actually believed all that? Look for this book in the Asia section, avail. 9/30.
