This is a study of the war which established Japan's image as a
warrior nation, an image which in many ways persists today. Using
extensive Japanese materials, including the letters of frontline
troops and provincial newspapers, it presents the diverse
experience both of soldiers and civilians, and reveals how war
accelerated the modernization of Japanese society. Included are
such topics as the soldiers' impressions of duty, nation and their
"fellow" Asians; the role of the emperor as commander-in-chief; the
use of the war in schools; and the activities of small business,
institutional religion and patriotic societies.
