A Short History of Japan by Curtis Andressen
From the dawn of time when the first settlers arrived in the islands of Japan, through feudalism with its heavy imprint of authoritarianism to 20th-century adventurism, American occupation and contemporary uncertainty, the author traces Japan's history and its social and political manifestations.
