Product Description
- About the Book: Showa 1926 - 1939: A History of Japan lays the groundwork for Eisner award-winning author Shigeru Mizuki's historical and autobiographical series about Japanese life in the twentieth century.
- Product Design: Depicted against his trademark photorealistic backdrops, Mizuki effortlessly portrays a nation forced into a period of upheaval and brings history into the realm of the personal.
- User Experience: As a child coming of age in the Showa era, the author's earliest memories coincide with key events of the time, lending the narrative an intimate and authentic perspective.
- Versatile Occasion: It all begins with the Great Kanto Earthquake, a natural disaster that forces the country into a financial crisis, and the period leading up to World War II is thus depicted as a time of economic hardship and record unemployment.
- Quality Assurance: A fascinating period in Japanese history is recounted by manga's most distinguished author, making this hardcover edition an authoritative and visually compelling work for history enthusiasts and collectors alike.
