While indispensable for those who have a special interest in the vast part of Micronedia that Japan ruled, the author’s contribution has an importance for others as well. It offers a carefully researched and penetrating look into the heart and soul of one of the very few non-Western colonial powers in the Pacific." —Francis Hezel, Journal of Pacific History UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9780824843090 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9780824843090 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9780824843090/original ER -
