A Diplomat's Helpmate is a historical non-fiction book written by Mary Viola Tingley Lawrence and published in 1918. The book tells the story of Rose F. Foote, the wife of the first U.S. minister and envoy extraordinary to Korea, who served her country in the Far East. The book provides a detailed account of Rose's life and her experiences as a diplomat's wife in Korea during the early 20th century. It explores her role as a helpmate to her husband, her interactions with Korean society, and her efforts to promote American values and interests in the region. Through her letters, diaries, and personal accounts, the author paints a vivid picture of Rose's life in Korea, including her struggles with the language and culture, her efforts to establish relationships with Korean officials, and her involvement in social and cultural events. The book also sheds light on the political and social climate of Korea during this period, including the country's struggle for independence and the impact of foreign powers on its development. Overall, A Diplomat's Helpmate provides a fascinating insight into the life of a woman who played a significant role in shaping U.S. foreign policy in the Far East during a critical period in history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
