Why was the U.S. unprepared to meet the challenge? Tracing the history of Japanese aggression from 1853, Hoyt sheds new light on the â China Question,â the rape of Hong Kong, the Bataan Death March, and the murder camps of the East Indies. He analyzed Japanâ s policy of hakko ichiuâ all eight corners of the world under one roofâ that precipitated their military build-up. Japanâ s historical rivalry with the U.S.â more recognized there than hereâ made conflict, if not inevitable, at least probable. Superbly researched and written, drawing on previously unpublished Japanese documents, huge in scope, this book is a major revisionist history of Japanese militarism and World War II.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780070306127\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Silk Road Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51748703306029,"sku":"0000006119","price":35.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/5853\/5981\/files\/91wuf7g1vrL.jpg?v=1768393070","url":"https:\/\/silkroadstore.us\/products\/japans-war-the-great-pacific-conflict-1853-1952","provider":"Silk Road Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
