Book excerpt: A Military Attache in Japan (1929-1933), a work of history with the soul of a novel, is the compelling memoir of the late United States Army Colonel James G. McIlroy's service in Japan as Military Attache from 1929 to 1933. Brought to life with sensitivity by the author's daughter, Jane S. McIlroy, Colonel McIlroy's narrative takes readers on a wondrous journey through mid-twentieth-century political and military events. At the same time. Colonel McIlroy writes in delicious detail about his own military career, describing his appointment and ultimate service in Japan. He is an observant traveler. Come along with the Colonel as he creates vivid and revealing pictures of the Japanese Emperor and his family, Shinto ceremonies, elegant dinners, Japanese baths, and beautiful geishas in attendance at diplomatic functions. Interestingly, underlying much of the diplomatic context is Colonel McIlroy's main task-to learn how best to bomb Japan. It is information that will have a profound impact on history. Book jacket.

Book Synopsis The Japanese Informal Empire in China, 1895-1937 by : Peter Duus
Download or read book The Japanese Informal Empire in China, 1895-1937 written by Peter Duus and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2025-03-11 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume two of the acclaimed three-volume series on modern Japanese colonialism and imperialism This book brings together essays by leading experts on the history of Japan to examine the period from 1895 to 1937 when Japan’s economic, social, political, and military influence in China expanded so rapidly that it supplanted the influence of competing Western powers. They discuss how Japan’s informal empire emerged in China after Japan entered the Treaty Port system in 1895 and how it shaped Japan’s own internal development. How did Japan’s informal empire expand in size and importance so that Japanese economic and security interests became heavily dependent on China? What influence did Japanese business groups, China experts, and military have on their government’s China policy? How did the Japanese in China deal with the threatening rise of Chinese nationalism? Exploring these and other questions, these essays show how the pursuit of an informal empire in China played a profound role in the emergence of modern Japan. The contributors are Banno Junji, Barbara J. Brooks, Alvin D. Coox, Peter Duus, Albert Feuerwerker, Kitaoka Shin’ichi, Sophia Lee, Mizoguchi Toshiyuki, Ramon H. Myers, Nakagane Katsuji, Mark R. Peattie, Douglas R. Reynolds, and William D. Wray. This is the second volume of a series on modern Japanese colonialism and imperialism. Volume one is The Japanese Colonial Empire, 1895–1945. Volume three is The Japanese Wartime Empire, 1931–1945.

Book Synopsis Japan, the Jews, and Israel by : Meron Medzini
Download or read book Japan, the Jews, and Israel written by Meron Medzini and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2024-09-02 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although an ally of Nazi Germany during World War II, Japan adamantly refused to accede to German demands to deal harshly with the some 40,000 Jews living under its control. While there was anti-Semitism in Japan since the early 1920s, there was also philo-Semitism and great admiration for Jewish power, influence and achievements. Japan-Israel relations were very strained and tense from 1952 to the early 1990s due to Japan's dependence on Arab oil. But since 1990 the policy of Japan has changed radically and the country is now a close friend of Israel in East Asia. Meron Medzini compares and contrasts Israeli and Japanese society, foreign policy, and above all economic and technological ties. He analyzes the presence of Jews in Japan since the 1860s and the absence of any Jewish influence, power, and involvement in Japanese arts, media, academia, politics, labor unions, and industry.

Book excerpt: "Soldier Extraordinaire explores the colorful life and varied accomplishments of Brig. Gen. Frank "Pinkie" Dorn, an unusual player on the world stage during the 1920s and beyond World War II. Over the course of his 30-year Army career, Dorn manifested probing observations and analyses especially of Asia. He produced writings on subjects ranging from Philippine native tribes to Peking's Forbidden City and the origins of the Sino-Japanese War that began in 1937. Following the end of World War II, he was closely involved in Gen. Douglas MacArthur's brilliant occupation and pacification of Japan. Beyond his military successes, Dorn created world-class art, enjoyed cooking and writing cookbooks, was renowned for his cartography skills, and relished opportunities to comment on the frequent maelstroms and interplay of relevant personalities on social and military scenes."--Provided by publisher.

Book Synopsis Trans-Pacific Relations by : Richard Jensen
Download or read book Trans-Pacific Relations written by Richard Jensen and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2003-01-30 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This broad-based study of Western-Asian relations considers images of and actions by the United States, along with Britain and Germany, in the course of dealings with Asian nations such as China, Japan, Korea, Thailand, Vietnam, and the Philippines. Other case studies focus on inter-Asian relations between Japan and Korea; China and Japan; and Thailand and Vietnam. The essays encompass a wide range of recent scholarship, including cultural, economic, demographic, and intellectual approaches to military and diplomatic themes. Western influence, primarily American, in Asia grew consistently during the 20th century. While interaction often occurred on unequal terms, this study reveals the ability of Asians to assert their agency in the face of such immense Western power. The collection as a whole offers a window on relations across the Pacific in numerous spheres of activity over the course of one hundred years. As such, it introduces and adds to our understanding of the depth and variety of trans-Pacific relations.
