xxi + 202pp, bibliography, index, edges very lightly foxed, few minor stains from price tag dustjacket, now protected, a good copy. Discusses Japan's gradual involvement in World War II, focusing on the social dimension. Drawing on interviews with ordinary citizens, questionnaires, and a wide range of previously untapped local sources, the author demonstrates that, before its invasion of China in 1937, the Japanese army systematically molded an obedient rural following and thus experienced no difficulty in leading the nation into war or in retaining control during the long years of hostilities.
