Most observers in the West believe Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor was unprovoked, but what had led Japan to take such action? The arrival of American "black ships" in Japan in 1853 was one cause of the fall of the Shogunate and the restoration of imperial power little more than a decade later. That set Japan on the road to international expansion in imitation of Western imperial powers. This book recounts this saga through the Russo-Japanese War and Japanese expansion in Manchuria, to the brink of war with the United States.--adapted from publisher's description. 505 0 $a America and the whaling ships -- Perry and Harris -- Civilization versus bigotry -- The state of the world around the time of the Meiji Restoration -- The United States and the Iwakura Mission -- The long road to treaty revision -- The passion of the educator -- Two countries bound together by silk -- Discord following the Russo-Japanese War -- Behind the scenes as the movement to exclude Japan heats up -- Standoff in Manchuria -- Old diplomacy, new diplomacy -- Expansionism, driven by necessity. 651 0 $a United States $x Foreign relations $z Japan. 651 0 $a Japan $x Foreign relations $z United States. 651 0 $a United States $x Foreign relations $y 1865- 651 0 $a Japan $x Foreign relations $y 1600-1868. 651 0 $a Japan $x Foreign relations $y 1868- 700 1 $a Gallagher, Terry, $d 1956- $e translator. 830 0 $a Japan library (Shuppan Bunka SangyoÌ ShinkoÌ Zaidan) 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191120040656.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20190502024011.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=78B5E5C66CA011E9A39CB90697128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
