Book Description | Table of Contents
Chapter 1 [HTML] or [PDF format]

ADDITIONAL ENDORSEMENTS:

"Ozaki Yukio's autobiography is at once a political memoir and a political history. Interwoven with an account of his own political activities is a detailed narrative of political battles, debates, and intrigue inside and outside the Diet. Particularly engaging are Ozaki's vignettes of prewar political leaders. These add to the story a vividness often missing from more analytical works. . . The translation is accurate, close to the original, and readable. This is an important memoir that should be part of any good English language library collection on the history of modern Japan--and it will certainly be used by students."--Peter Duus, Stanford University, editor of The Japanese Wartime Empire, 1931-1945
