Until recently it had been assumed that no color photographs existed in Japan until the victorious US forces arrived in 1945. However, following a yearlong research project, an extraordinary color record began to emerge. Now in Japan's War in Color, rare and never-before-seen photographs reveal imperial Japanese troops in Manchuria in 1931, preparations for war in 1939, occupation troops in 1940 and the Japanese war machines in action throughout the second World War including extremely rare color photographs of the attack on Pearl Harbor.
This copy is in Very Good condition. There is some marking of the dust jacket, with fading of the spine. There is some very minor shelf wear. As always, the photos are of the book you will receive.
