by Bruce L . Batten (Author)
Spotlights four categories of cross-cultural interaction - war, diplomacy, piracy, and trade - over a period of eight hundred years to gain insight into several questions about Japan and its place in the world: How did Hakata come to serve as the country's ""front door""? Has Japan been historically open or closed to outside influence? And more.
