Korea by Michael Pembroke Hon Justice

A timely perspective on the history of the Korean peninsula
Michael Pembroke is a writer, historian, naturalist and the author of the acclaimed biography Arthur Phillip – Sailor, Mercenary, Governor, Spy (2013). He has lived and travelled extensively throughout the world, including in East Asia. His father, an infantry platoon commander during the Korean War, was awarded the Military Cross for his role in a battle described as 'one of the finest battalion attacks in British history'. The research for this book has taken Pembroke to Moscow, Beijing, Pyongyang, Washington DC, Princeton and Cambridge. In 2016, he travelled through North Korea from the Yalu River to the Demilitarised Zone. He has been a judge of the Supreme Court of New South Wales, Australia, since 2010.
