"It is always difficult for Englishmen to admit that Nelson ever had an equal in his profession, but if any man is entitled to be so regarded, it should be this great Korean naval commander."
- Admiral Ballard George Alexander, British Royal Navy
"I'm honored to be compared with the great naval commander, but you cannot compare either me or Nelson to Admiral Lee. He was the greatest strategist and has always been the best teacher to me. I've always wanted to learn his amazing personality and become a person like him."
- Admiral Heihachiro Togo, Japanese Imperial Navy
To be ready to fight back the incoming war, the man had to fight his own society first.
He had to fight the discrimination and bias. He was mocked, misunderstood, doubted and mistreated.
But his lonely, yet confident fight saved his country, and today the people of his country respect the man more than any other national heroes in their history.
His life-time struggle and success, still relatively unknown to the world, resonate with a warm, humane message to us all.
This book is the fruit from countless hours of research and fieldtrip to share with us the gems of Human LEE Sunshin's life-affirming lessons and wisdom.
The book is composed with 7 different chapters:
1. Admiral LEE
2. Early Life and Struggle
3. Bitter Lessons in Northern Land
4. The Crazy Man's Lonely Preparations
5. The War and Victories
6. Lonely Glory of the Last Years
7. The Legacies of the Lonely Saint Hero
What makes this book the most distinctive from all other books about Admiral LEE and the Great East Asian War (also called the Imjin War 1592) is the REASON why the man was so sure about the incoming invasion upon his country. That reason is why he was confident in his preparation to fight back the invasion while everyone called him an "over-concerned, crazy budget sucker."
More than 400 years after his death, his spirit still stays with the world among all mankind to help the people who struggle with the same social problems still straining us in our time, and to show us the way for success despite all the hardships.
It is a storytelling book, but it doesn't just entertain the readers. This book is to make the readers THINK.
You will, like you already did in the previous books of the series, find a lot of apostrophes and hyphens among the words. They are, as a matter of fact, not an'y form'at or gramm'at-ic'al errors to be edited. The next book, the final book of this series, The Unknown Revealed, will explain why and reveal the obvious facts that will wake up the real world for you.
