NEW SCRIBNER BOOKS 



IN KOREA WITH MARQUIS ITO 



By GEORGE TRUMBULL LADD, D. D. 



Illustrated, $2.50 net; postpaid, $2.70 



The most important book on Korea and her relations 

 with Japan that has ever been brought out. Professor 

 Ladd had, through his relations with Marquis Ito, very 

 exceptional facilities for personal observation in Korea, 

 and unprecedented opportunities for obtaining inside 

 information and accurate knowledge as to the past and 

 present conduct of Japan and her present intentions. 

 Much hitherto unpublished diplomatic material was 

 placed in his hands. It is partly the account of per- 

 sonal experience described in a readable and interesting 

 way, and in part a serious first-hand discussion of a 

 weighty political problem. No one can, in the future, 

 write the history of these events or discuss them with 

 authority without making himself familiar with the 

 views and conclusions of Professor Ladd in this book.

 grandest of scenery to fill the trip with unalloyed delight and give zest to every page of the book. Mr. Horn-

 ruthless destruction of animal life."— New York Times Review.
