The book was featured at the world’s biggest book event, Frankfurt International Book Fair 2018 last October 10th – 14th, 2018 at Frankfurt am Main, Germany.

Hackchan Rhee is a mechanical engineer from Littleton, Colorado, a husband and a father who loves to hike on his free time. A simple man who lived a simple life but with an extraordinary background that he shared in his biography “Under Five Flags” co-authored with his wife, Marta L. Tullis. A piece that will let readers take a closer look at history through the perspective of someone who had lived through it.
 
The book started with a description of the Rhee’s family life in the 1930s and 1940s Pyongyang, the capital of North Korea which by that time is ruled by Japan. It is followed by detailed narrative of Rhee’s experience throughout his journey. Several photographs that the author had collected over time are also added.
 
Hackchan Rhee has lived under the rule of Japan, Russia, North Korea, South Korea, and the United States. Through it all, he was exposed to the struggles and frailties of humanity, which had encouraged him to seek for a better life overseas.
 
A reader shared a review for the book saying, “What sets Rhee’s book apart from other academic or scholarly books on Korea, it’s a diary of one who lived, breath and survived under Japanese, Russian and American occupation. It’s a simple story, survival, ritual, manipulation, indoctrination in which the family struggles with the elements.”
