What a thrilling ride through Hermit nation a.k.a North Korea. The author Travis Jeppesen has done a wonderful job with this book giving us a window into the political, cultural and social situation in DPRK (Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea) and the oddities of it all. Did you know North Korea has it's own timezone? Or for that matter their own calendar based on Kim il-sung's birthday? Such interesting and idiosyncratic facts keeps one glued to his book cover to cover. If you are a history buff or just want to gain some more insight into North from someone who has been there, this book is for you.
