This unique gem of a personal story of a Japanese soldier in the Russo-Japanese War of the Meiji Era in Japan which broke out in 1904 is of more than historical interest and fascination. The writer paints a moving picture of the lives and deaths, joys and sorrows of the men who took Port Arthur in the bloodiest battle of this short war. The tale is told vividly and simply and is a rare revelation of the innermost feelings of a Japanese soldier of remarkable intelligence, spirituality and powers of expression

The impact of the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-5 was incalculable. It was the first victory by an Asian power over a European one since the Mongol invasions of the thirteenth century. This title presents the story of combat and a source of insights about a relatively obscure but immensely influential conflict.

EN JAPANSK OFFICERS DAGBOG UNDER BELEJRINGEN OG STORMEN PAA PORT ARTHURDa denne bog udkom i 1913, var der ingen der mere kunne huske den Russisk-Japanske krig i 1904-05, selvom det havde vakt megen opstandelse, at Japan kunne vinde over Rusland.Idag er flertallet vel ganske uvidende om denne krig, men netop af denne årsag, og fordi vi idag vælter os så meget i militarisme og krig, kan det være en god ide, at læse denne bog, hvor vi i dagbogsform kommer helt tæt på en rædselsfuld moderne krig.
