Blumberg, Rhoda, Commodore Perry in the Land of the Shogun (HarperCollins, 2003). His analyses of such episodes as the arrival of Commodore Perry and the first Sino-Japanese War tend not to dwell on the immediate diplomatic details, and focus instead on their wider significance for Japan's evolving political and cultural economies. Forty musicians, 100 sailors, and 110 well-armed marines preceded Commodore Perry ashore. |
