Jane's Fighting Ships 1939
London: Sampson Low, Marston & Co., Ltd., 1939. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Hardcover. ISSUED November, 1939! Oblong format. 53 pages of advertisements, xx, 543, [1] pages. Illustrations. Tables. General Index. Addenda. Special Late Addenda. Cover has some wear and soiling. Edges and parts of pages soiled and moisture stained. Jane's Fighting Ships by Janes Information Services is an annual reference book of information on all the world's warships arranged by nation, including information on ships' names, dimensions, armaments, silhouettes and photographs, etc. Each edition describes and illustrates warships of different national naval and paramilitary forces, providing data on their characteristics. The first issue was illustrated with Jane's own ink sketches--photos began to appear with the third volume in 1900. The present title was adopted in 1905. It was originally published by Fred T. Jane in London in 1898 as Jane's All the World's Fighting Ships, in order to assist naval officers and the general public in playing naval wargames. Its success eventually launched a number of military publications carrying the name "Jane's". It is a unit of Jane's Information Group, which is now owned by IHS. Ten early editions of Jane's (those of 1898, 1905-06, 1906-07, 1914, 1919, 1924, 1931, 1939, 1944-45, and 1950-51) were reissued in facsimile reprints by Arco Publishing starting in 1969. All of these appeared in the oblong or "landscape" format that characterized the series until the 1956/57 edition, while from 1957/58 the present "portrait" layout was adopted, thus matching the sister Jane's publication on aircraft.

Armin H. Meyer. Includes Foreword by Edwin O. Reischauer., Acknowledgments, Appendix A, and Index. Chapters include Mission: Adjustment to the Realities of the 1970's; As Okinawa Goes, So Goes Japan; Mutuality and Mutability in Security Partnership; Detente with Mainland China: Nixon's Billiard Shot; Nixon Shock Number Two: Economic Reciprocity; Textiles: Taxing Tokyo's Tensile Strength; The Changing Art of the Possible; and Two Great Powers in Search of Their Roles. In Ambassador Meyer's words, the purpose of this book is to awaken greater public interest in the gravity of America's relationship with Asia's foremost power, and in the delicacy which must be exercised by those to whom responsibility for the relationship is entrusted. The partnership, so critical to peace in Asia, cannot be taken for granted. The postwar development of Japan has been nothing less than phenomenal. Within a quarter of a century, a nation which was physically devastated and morally crushed rose to become one of the world's three leading industrial powers. But with successes come new problems. By 1969, major adjustments to new realities were necessry--in Japan, and in the all-important relationship between Japan and the United States. This book is his account of the critical issues which were faced, and how they were handled. More
