When the World Calls is the first complete and balanced look at the Peace Corps’s first fifty years. Revelatory and candid, journalist Stanley Meisler’s engaging narrative exposes Washington infighting, presidential influence, and the Volunteers’ unique struggles abroad. He deftly unpacks the complicated history with sharp analysis and memorable anecdotes, taking readers on a global trek starting with the historic first contingent of Volunteers to Ghana on August 30, 1961. In the years since, in spite of setbacks, the ethos of the Peace Corps has endured, largely due to the perseverance of the 200,000 Volunteers themselves, whose shared commitment to effect positive global change has been a constant in one of our most complex—and valued—institutions.

The year 1969 was a time of war in Vietnam; it was a time of peace in Korea, however, as an armistice held on the Korean peninsula, two thousand miles north of Saigon. Almost three hundred Peace Corps volunteers were serving in Korea then as teachers and health workers. In The Time of the Monkey, Rooster, and Dog, author Charles A. Hobbie details his service in Korea as a Peace Corps volunteer teaching English. It was a time of awakening for both Korea and for Hobbie. Filled with insights into the times and the people both in Korea and the Peace Corps, this memoir captures the essence of a rapidly changing nation. Hobbie narrates the experiences of his three unforgettable, challenging years in Korea from 1968 to 1971. He describes the people, streets, and markets of Daegu, the friendships and fellowship of students and fellow teachers, the rugged mountain ranges, the exuberance of Korean drumming and dancing, and the laughter and kindness of Korean families. Told through the eyes of a young Peace Corps volunteer, this firsthand account provides a look at the early years of Koreas transformation while telling Hobbies own life-changing story.

Return to the Other Side of the World takes us on another memorable journey to that enchanted and challenging culture that was India in the late 1960s. We return to that place and time when a group of Peace Corps volunteers responded to President Kennedy's call to work in foreign lands so the world might become a better place. In this second volume, the former volunteers of India 44 share what they experienced and felt as they tried to live out the assassinated president's noble ideal. In telling their stories, they bring us back to a turbulent period in American history, a decade of war and discontent at home, yet a time of hope and expectation for so many. A few found a way to seek and express the better angels of their natures. With more energy than skills, more hope than experience, these young men and women lived and worked in small villages and towns doing either agricultural development or public health. As with the first volume of reflections, this is not a feel-good testimony to the Peace Corps. The stories told, the memories retrieved, the feelings expressed are at times raw and revealing. They touch upon moments that are funny, sad, embarrassing, and occasionally uplifting. These are the stories of the India 44 volunteers as they share what undoubtedly remains an irreplaceable and transformative period in their lives. Mary Jo Clark, Thomas Corbett, Michael Simonds, Kathy Kelleher Sohn, and Haywood Turrentine compiled the second edition. Respectively, the authors reside in San Diego, California, Madison, Wisconsin, the greater Hartford area, Greensboro, North Carolina, and Birmingham, Alabama.
