Description
"Drawing on archival documents, photographs, and sources in both Japanese and English, this book throws new light on the history of twentieth-century Japan and the central role of Hirohito.
With Japan's defeat in the Pacific War, the emperor was transformed from wartime leader to peace-loving scientist.
Japan on Display seeks to understand this reinvention of a more 'human' emperor and the role that photography played in the process."--Jacket.
