Bix, Herbert P : HIROHITO AND THE MAKING OF MODERN JAPANHARPERCOLLINS PUBLISHERS, 2000 ISBN 9780060193140
A highly collectible first edition/printing, tight clean copy, protected in a new brodart wrapper, no inscriptions, unclipped dustjacket, this is not an Ex-Lib or a BCE/BOMC edition. Bix penetrates decades of "public opacity" to offer a stunning portrait of the controversial Japanese emperor, "one of the most disingenuous persons ever to occupy the modern throne." Hirohito ascended to the Japanese throne in 1926 (at the age of 25) and ruled until his death in 1989. Bix closely examines his long, eventful reign, concentrating on the extent of the emperor's influence- which was greater than he admitted-over the political and military life of Japan during WWII., F/VG Click here for full details of this book, to ask a question or to buy it on-line.
