The purpose of this book is to present South Korea in a small way. The Reverend Thomas G. Norton spent much time over more than fifteen years in South Korea and had many involvements. The first part of this book will describe many of his experiences and adventures in the mission field and in churches and communities throughout South Korea. He does this through interesting and informative ways. The culture and customs are often unusual and frequently comical for Westerners in this land of the "Morning Calm" as it is called. Koreans' thinking and actions are often opposite to those of Westerners. His depictions of these differences, the people, and its evolution are descriptive and vivid. The second part of the book is a collection of his sermons delivered mostly at the Shin Kwang Church () in Seong Nam (), a city adjacent to Seoul (), the capital of South Korea (). He also worked and preached at the Yang Dong Jee Ill Church () in Mokpo (). Also included in this book are about fifty full page color pictures. Norton has spoken and delivered sermons in many other parts of South Korea. His sermons speak directly or indirectly to Koreans and their situations, but also they speak to all people of the world.

The Fishkill Mission was Tony Martin's first of his six books. It was written fifteen years before the World Trade Center destruction, about an attack on a small part of Texas by a four-man team of vengeful Cuban terrorists. They are in our country for less than three days, kill over 100,000 people, destroy the economic viability of a region of over 75,000 square miles for decades to come, terrorize an entire nation and completely alter and redirect the political and defense priorities and the financial expenditures of the entire government structure at all levels; and, we never knew who they were or why they attacked us. Tony Martin asked several of his friends, relatives, and even an author's agent, to review it for him in 1986, and to the person, they said it was simply too frightening and asked him not to publish it for fear of giving ideas to terrorists. He acquiesced to their pleas, and wrote and published five other books over the next fifteen years. He dug the book out in 2000 to update it to reflect the political realities of the 1990's such as the fall of the USSR and the Gulf War, but again, he did not publish it.Since writing the book, Martin has been responsible for public water supplies in two different communities totaling well over 100,000 people, and the book reflects his long-standing belief that our life support infrastructure system exposes us to small unit attacks by our enemies with the greatest ease, the greatest long-term impact and the least probability of discovery or apprehension. Martin actually carried out the attacks described in the book using sand-filled containers and a camera, to ensure that the timetables and undetected access were possible and realistic. Sadly, they were.
