Fifteen Years Among The Top-Knots: Or Life In Korea is a memoir written by Lillias H. Underwood about her experiences living in Korea for fifteen years. Underwood was a Christian missionary who arrived in Korea in 1889 and spent the next fifteen years working to spread Christianity and improve the lives of the Korean people. The book provides a detailed account of her life and work in Korea, including her interactions with the Korean people, her struggles to learn the language and adapt to the culture, and her efforts to establish schools and hospitals. Underwood also writes about the political and social climate of Korea during this time, including the country's struggles with Japanese colonization and the impact of Christianity on Korean society. The book provides a unique perspective on Korean history and culture from the viewpoint of a Western missionary who lived among the people and worked to make a difference in their lives.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
