{"product_id":"2940177539461","title":"The Mill on the Floss: Penguin Classics","description":"Merriam Press Naval History 2 (NH2). First Edition (2014). This is a biography of Japanese Navy Admiral Osami Nagano, who ordered the attack on the American fleet at Pearl Harbor. This work covers his entire career, diplomatic, political and military, concentrating on the years leading up to the war between Japan and the United States. \u003cp\u003eNagano was born in 1880, a time and place of great transformation in Japan. The Shogun era was giving way to the Meiji Empire and political power was centralized in the new capital of Edo (now Tokyo). The samurai system of warlord rule was ending and Japan was forced to look beyond her borders to shape her future. Nagano, with a strict but loving father and persevering mother, started out with a solid background. He attained great achievements in his military and political careers, but his involvement in Japan's entrance into World War II on 8 December 1941 led to his ultimate downfall. He died in 1947, in Sugamo Prison in Tokyo during the International Military Tribunal for the Far East under U.S. occupation, following Japan's defeat. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContents: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEarly Years of Osami Nagano, 1880 - 1900 \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Early Career and Marriages, 1900 - 1920 \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Diplomat and Traveler, 1920 - 1930 \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 4: Diplomat, Sailor and Politician, 1930 - 1941 \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart 1: Diplomat: Geneva Disarmament Conference 1932-1933 \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart 2: Sailor: Commandant, Yokosuka Naval Base \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart 3: Diplomat: Second London Naval Conference 1935-1936 \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart 4: Politician: Naval Minister \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart 5: Sailor: Commander in Chief of the Combined Fleet \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart 6: Retiree and Celebrity \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart 7: Concerned Warrior, 9 April to 8 December 1941 \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 5: Post Script \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGlossary \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSignificant Individuals \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAppendix A1-A8: Postcards \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAppendix B: Nagano Family Tree and Osami Nagano's Wives and Children \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAppendix C1-C4: Naval Treaties and Naval Ship Estimates 1941 \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAppendix D: Meiji Constitution \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAppendix E: Nagano Medals, Orders, Decorations \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAppendix F: Soviet Japan Neutrality Treaty, April 13, 1941 \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAppendix G: Summary of IMTFE Trial Results \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIndex \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e84 B\u0026amp;W photos \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e121 color photos \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e7 maps \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e7 tables \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e2 charts\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Random House UK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47170187493616,"sku":"2940177539461","price":21.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940177539461_p0.jpg?v=1769909083","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940177539461","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
