Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Sunstruck Giant: The First Sino-Japanese War of 1894-95 presents a thorough military history of the First Sino-Japanese War, detailing its campaigns, battles, and key figures. Drawing on hitherto untranslated Chinese sources, it is the first English-language work to offer a truly comprehensive view of both sides in this forgotten war. Marking the death-rattle of one empire and the ascendancy of another, the First Sino-Japanese War is often portrayed as the ultimate contrast between a backwards China and a fully modernised Japan. This often nationalism-tinted lens has led many to completely gloss over the redeeming features of the Chinese military and the terrible failures of the Japanese. Ergo, Sunstruck Giant examines in great detail the specific strategic, tactical and individual actions and decisions of both combatants. The text is generously complemented with rare photographs and illustrations, many being published here for the first time. Sunstruck Giant is also an excellent resource for modelers and reenactors, featuring a collection of full colour reconstructions depicting Chinese military uniforms and flags actually used in the war, taken from private collections, archives and museums of all nationalities, as well as a full table of Imperial Japanese Army uniform colours and types. Previous works on uniforms of this period are limited by their inability to use Chinese and Japanese language resources, and Sunstruck Giant bridges the gap. AUTHOR: John Dong is currently a student studying at the University of California at Berkeley; the topic of East Asian military history is of great interest and passion to him. He has previously worked with Professor Diliana Angelova in reconstructing and researching classical architecture. 12pp colour illustrations, 22 b/w photos & illustrations, tables throughout Sunstruck Giant presents a thorough military history of the First Sino-Japanese War, detailing its campaigns, battles, and key figures.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Utilising hitherto untranslated sources, volume two of Sunstruck Giant provides a complete campaign history of the First Sino-Japanese War of 189495, detailing not only the battles themselves but also the strategic motivations that shaped them. Six full-colour plates bring key engagements of the war to life with vivid authenticity. Often depicted as the death-rattle of one empire and the ascendancy of another, the First Sino-Japanese War is commonly framed as a stark contrast between a backward China and a fully modernised Japan. This nationalism-tinted lens has led many accounts to gloss over the redeeming qualities of the Chinese military while downplaying the serious shortcomings of the Japanese. Drawing on previously untranslated sources, Sunstruck Giant is the first English-language work to offer a genuinely comprehensive and balanced view of both sides in this neglected conflict. Existing English-language histories rely almost exclusively on Japanese sources, omitting the invaluable Chinese perspective and often excluding facts less creditable to the Japanese side. Sunstruck Giant therefore examines the other side of the hill, analysing the successes, failures, mistakes, and misfortunes of both belligerents. Far from being uniformly backward, Chinese forces demonstrated moments of genuine heroism, while the supposedly modernised Japanese were far from immune to grave and costly blunders. AUTHOR: John Dong is currently a student studying at the University of California at Berkeley; the topic of East Asian military history is a great interest and passion to him. He has previously worked with Professors Brian DeLay and Diliana Angelova. 6 colour plates, 58 b/w photos, 44 b/w illustrations, 9 b/w maps, 17 tables Utilising hitherto untranslated sources, Sunstruck Giant Volume Two provides a complete campaign history of the First Sino-Japanese War of 1894-95, detailing not only battles but the underlying strategic motivations behind them.
