JAPAN AND THE DECLINE OF THE WEST IN ASIA 1894 - 1943

First edition, first printing. Publisher's original black cloth boards with gilt titles to the spine, in dustwrapper. A better than very good copy, the binding tight and square, with bumping and rubbing to the spine ends and corners. The contents, with foxing to the endpapers and pastedowns, are otherwise clean throughout and free from inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the lightly rubbed and creased dustwrapper, that remains without fading, loss or tears. Not price clipped (£8.00 net to the front flap).

A study of the rise of the Japanese Empire, its changing foreign policy, the domestic factors that influenced it and the implications this had for Western influence in Asia.
