| | 3. |  | A History of Japan to 1334
from Stanford University Press
Price: $28.55
Customer Review:
Excellent and eloquently written text that includes an over view of Japans' political history from Ancient times until the Nambokucho Jidai Two Courts period. This book is typical of the quality you can come to expect from the Stanford University press.

Customer Review:
How do I describe in words the emotion this book evokes. It simply can't be done. Of all the books I have read on this era of Japanese history, this one had the most impact by far. Oral histories are valuable because they reveal the side of history you don't hear about in dry history books, they... more info

Customer Review:
This book is an absolutely stellar treatment for its genre: the generalized universal history of a country over a long period. Such topics are extremely difficult to do well, but McClain's book is pretty much the way such books should be.
The book is excellent for the following reasons:

from Tuttle Publishing
Price: $5.98
Customer Review:
This book is really dense, but I suppose that's because it's a book on the history of a very ancient country.

| | 8. |  | A History of Japan, 1615-1867
from Stanford University Press
Price: $20.85
Customer Review:
George Sansom gives too much of a bias view against the Tokugawa's and how they served their country. I would wish to find a book on the history of Japan between 1600-1800 that would give an accurate unbiased view.

Customer Review:
This one volume overview of Japan's history is great for my use. I read a lot of books by Japanese authors. I wanted a source to go to for an overview of events referred to in the books I was reading. The inclusion of a timeline, gazetteer, lists of rulers and index make this a very handy book.more info
