Until recently it had been assumed that no colour photographs existed in Japan until the victorious US forces arrived in 1945. However, following a year-long research project, an extraordinary colour record began to emerge. Rare photographs reveal imperial Japanese troops in Manchuria in 1931, preparations for war in 1939, occupation troops in 1940 and the Japanese war machine in action throughout the Second World War. This book contains a unique and fascinating archive of colour photographs, film stills and prints from one of the most momentous periods in world history, including never-before-seen photographs of Japanese troops in action and extremely rare colour photographs of the attack on Pearl Harbour.
