Summary: |
"Memoirs of an extreme nationalist... which he recorded during his imprisonment in Sugamo Prison as a
Class A war crimes suspect. Written by Japan's 'Man-in-Question' Kodama, the youngest Class A war crimes suspect
of the past war, this book besides being an autobiography of the author is the hitherto unpublished history of
the vicissitudes of nationalism and militarism in Japan. Hidden in the strangely fascinating history of Japan,
long dominated by the zaibatsu, the militarists and the political parties of the past are numerous secrets....
a highly invaluable record of the actual political and economic conditions of the Showa Period
leading up to Japan's defeat in the Pacific War...." CLICK THE "MORE IMAGES" LINK ABOVE TO SEE MORE OF THIS TITLE |
