by Schaller, Michael

  • Used

Here is an eye-opening history of U.S.-Japan relations from the end of World War II to the present, revealing startling complexities. Acclaimed political history writer Michael Schaller reveals that most of what we criticize today in Japan's behavior stems directly from U.S. occupation policy of the 1950s.
