1.A Modern History of Japan: From Tokugawa Times to the PresentA Modern History of Japan: From Tokugawa Times to the Present
from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $32.36

Customer Review:
I mistakenly didn't realise that this is a college textbook. It also reads like a college textbook on Japanese history. As a matter of fact it feels like I am studying! Anyway, a fine book but be warned, it's like taking Modern Japanese History 101.

3.A History of Japan, Second Edition: From Stone Age to SuperpowerA History of Japan, Second Edition: From Stone Age to Superpower
from Palgrave Macmillan
Price: $14.93

Customer Review:
This book is my recent reading about Japanese history and I found it is written in a wonderfully succinct way. Japan's history ranges over almost 2,000 years only for its historical part. If anybody feels it is still difficult to summarize 200-year history of the United States into a few hundred... more info

Price: $12.89

Customer Review:
This book was written by W. Scott Morton and J. Kenneth Olenik.
I never want to purchase anything from these authors again. The
material in the book contains very incorrect and slanderous information, as well as a failure to provide relevant information, concerning Nichiren Daishonin and... more info

I was fortunate enough to have this author as a professor for a history of Japan course.

Customer Review:
This is a good little book that is fairly informative of Japanese history. I wish it had been a bigger book physically so that it was a bit easier to read. The pictures are fine, but when coupled with instruction/directions that could have been much better... I would have to say that the book is... more info

9.A History of Japan: Revised EditionA History of Japan: Revised Edition
from Tuttle Publishing
Price: $12.89

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. It reads like a very boring old-fashioned book, but it is very rich in detail, going back thousands of years all the way to nearly the present. I suppose it's good if you have a lot of spare... more info

from Stanford University Press
Price: $29.63

Customer Review:
As I mentioned in my review of the first volume ("A History of Japan to 1334"), George Sansom's series is one of the most informative and detailed accounts of Japanese history that is available. There is no volume of the series that is an exception to the statement above, but I must admit that, as... more info
