Book excerpt: Hyun Sook Han was born in Korea during a time when the Japanese occupied her country, prior to World War II. She was still only a child when the Korean War broke out and she had to flee Seoul with her family. In the horror of that experience, passing thousands of abandoned and dead children, she made a promise that she would come back to them as soon as she could. In the chaos and poverty of post-war Korea, she started on her path to fulfill that promise. In this book, Hyun Sook Han relates the very distinct lives she has led, and how they've all come together in one amazing whole. Daughter, student, refugee, wife, emigrant, social worker, mother, Korean, American, and adoption pioneer. Those who know only one of her lives will be fascinated to read about the others. --from the publisher.
