China's trial by fire : the Shanghai War of 1932
Donald A. Jordan (Author)
"Ten years before Pearl Harbor, Japan tested modern China in a thirty-three-day war now known as the Shanghai War of 1932. Often obscured by the larger World War II, this history details how the Chinese, fighting from trenches against Japan's modern bombers and navy, formed a defense that brought the country together for the first time." "Scholars of Chinese military and political history, as well as those curious about the historical factors leading to Pearl Harbor, will find here a story far more significant than a minor regional skirmish."--Jacket
