"Selig Harrison has longer and more intimate experience with
North Korean security issues than any other American observer.
He has used his inside knowledge plus extensive additional research
to produce a provocative appeal for new thinking about the current
situation on the Korean peninsula and the challenges in the years
ahead. This is an important contribution that will benefit policymakers
and the public alike."--Don Oberdorfer, author of The Two Koreas:
A Contemporary History, former diplomatic correspondent for the
Washington Post
-
"Korean Endgame is the best analysis I have seen of the difficult
policy choices facing the United States in Korea. Selig Harrison
covers all the key issues accurately and thoroughly, bringing
into perspective the complicated relationships among North Korea,
South Korea, and the United States. Providing a realistic strategy
for ending one of the world's most dangerous military confrontations,
this book should be required reading for policymakers and others
who care about Asia and international affairs."--Jimmy Carter,
39th President of the United States, Founder and Chairman of The
Carter Center
