In doing so, the book also considers what relevance these historical U.K.- Japan peacetime military ties have relevance for those of the present.Original in its exclusive focus on peacetime military links of both a historical and contemporary nature, this significant work is both practical and scholarly in its approach and will appeal to students and scholars of Japanese history, British history, military history, international relations, and diplomacy.
