Description:
Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Asia Center / Harvard University Press, 2011. Hardback octavo, dustjacket, very good plus condition (in very good plus dustjacket). 312 pp. Australian academic Peter Mauch describes how, as Japan's pre-Pearl Harbor ambassador to the United States, Admiral Kichisaburo (1877 - 1964) played a significant role in a tense and turbulent period in Japanese-U.S. relations. Connects his experiences as a naval officer to his service as foreign minister and ambassador, and later as father of Japan's Maritime Self Defense Forces and proponent of the U.S.-Japanese alliance. Re-assesses Nomura's contributions as a hard-nosed realist whose grasp of the underlying realities of Japanese-U.S. relations went largely unappreciated by the Japanese political and military establishment.
