Park Chung Hee and Modern Korea: The Roots of… door Carter J. Eckert
Interesting military history. Can be tedious if not your thing but well worth the read.
As others have noted, this is not really a conventional biography of Park. What one has is a history of the milieu that the man was raised and educated in; that of the Japanese empire in mainland Asia and the institutions of the Imperial Japanese Army. This provides the deep background on the choices that Park made once he took power in South Korea. I enjoyed it, but it probably is not the first book that someone should read on 20th-century Korea or Japan.
