Description: "[T]ell[s] for the first time the fascinating story of the old Korean Communist movement before the takeover in the North. It presents the fullest and most reliable account of the origins of that hitherto enigmatic leader of the northern Communist regime, Kim Il-sŏng. At the same time it throws new and valuable light on the activities of the Comintern and the Communist movements in the Soviet Union, China, and Japan."--Foreword, page ix.
