The Battle for China: Essays on the Military History of the Sino-Japanese War of 1937-1945

內容簡介

內容簡介 This project offers the first English-language general history of military operations during the Sino-Japanese war based on Japanese, Chinese, and Western sources. Winner of the 2012 Society for Military History Distinguished Book Award (non-US).Most studies of the Sino-Japanese War are presented from the perspective of the West. Departing from this tradition, The Battle for China brings together Chinese, Japanese, and Western scholars to provide a comprehensive and multifaceted overview of the military operations that shaped much of what happened in political, economic, and cultural realms. The volume's diverse contributors have taken pains to sustain a scholarly, dispassionate tone throughout their analyses of the course and the nature of military operations, from the Marco Polo Bridge Incident to the final campaigns of 1945. They present Western involvement in Sino-Japanese contexts, and establish the war's place in World War II and world history in general.
