Don Baker's Site

This site will provide a portal into my work on Korean religion and Korean history.

Email me at don.baker@ubc.ca if any of the links on the site are broken and I will try to correct them.

If you are interested in a guided tour of Korea, I will be leading such a tour in the spring of 2011. We will visit many of the places which have inspired my research and writing over the last three decades. For more information on that tour, go to
