Title: Scenes from the Hermit Kingdom
Description: The Moffett Korea Collection at Princeton Theological Seminary includes the papers of Samuel A. Moffett and Samuel H. and Eileen F. Moffett, manuscript and photographic materials related to missions in Korea, and a 1,000-volume research library of works on Korean history, culture, and Presbyterian churches. This book contains a selection of historical photographs from the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries. These photographs provide a rare glimpse into the world of old Korea before the Japanese occupation.

This wonderful book of photographs showcases only a few of the marvelous photographs from the Moffett Korea Collection. This collection, edited by Sarah Malone, is a tribute to Dr. Samuel Hugh Moffett and Mrs. Eileen Flower Moffett, who are among the most beloved donors to Special Collections at the Seminary Libraries.
