Synopsis
At the dawn of the twentieth century, the Russo-Japanese War (1904-05) became a worldwide political focal point. The war, marked the rise of Japan as a world power, paved the way for the Russian Revolution, and made Theodore Roosevelt the first American ever to win the Nobel Peace Prize. It engaged the fervent attention of Asia, Europe and the United States--so much so that the Milton Bradley Co. created a popular board game based on the war. But more than this, the Russo-Japanese conflict was the first war to be fully recorded by the international media. Journalists, photographers, and filmmakers poured into the areas, capturing the battles in words and visuals, and creating in the process a flood of images remarkable for their vibrancy and power. A Much Recorded War examines the Russo-Japanese conflict from the viewpoint of its artistic legacy, exploring the ways in which it was represented, promoted, and mythologized. Featuring more than 80 objects--from woodblock prints, lithographs, watercolors, and photographs to film, postcards, and even garments--the book discusses the origins and history of the war, the development of its imagery in Japanese art, and the groundbreaking role of photography and film. Published to mark the 100th anniversary of the Portsmouth Treaty, which ended the war, this is both a remarkable work of historical scholarship and a brilliant compendium of period graphic art.

    An excellent transaction that was only marred by the ineptitude of the USPS in handling the package, resulting in it being delivered three days past the expected arrival time. Description, packaging, and speed in shipping were all first rate. Offer made by seller was excellent and made total cost very reasonable. An excellent seller who gets an A++++ from this buyer, but the USPS gets a D--- for its efforts.

    Item was exactly as described in the seller's listing. Item was picked up locally, so no shipping was required. Item was part of a multi-product order. One item was not found in the seller's inventory and was quickly refunded. This seller is my favorite local seller. I have purchased many items from him and will continue to make more purchases in the future. Bobe's Hobby House has my highest recommendation for honesty, integrity, and value.

    Arrived in excellent condition as described. Very promptly shipped, appropriate packaging and a good value. Seller combined shipping on items I ordered separately without realizing it was the same vendor -- greatly appreciated!
