The volume chronicles the warships that defined Japan's naval air power during the first half of the twentieth century, documenting aircraft carriers and seaplane tenders with extraordinary photographic clarity and historical precision.\n\nSupplemented by the supervisory expertise of Togashi Kazushige, this landmark publication stands as an essential reference for naval historians, ship modellers, and students of Pacific War history alike. The bilingual presentation — Japanese text accompanied by English captions — broadens its reach to an international audience, while the large-format layout allows the photographs to communicate the sheer scale and engineering ambition of these vessels. For anyone seeking to understand the visual and material culture of the Imperial Japanese Navy, this volume raises as many questions about strategy, sacrifice, and sea power as it definitively answers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50572328501467,"sku":"9784478950562-SECONDHAND","price":100.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/4065362b-b3fb-4e0a-9296-f7721445fd63.png?v=1791166338","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9784478950562-secondhand-aircraft-carrier-and-seaplane-carrier-japanese-naval-warship-photo-album-%e6%97%a5%e6%9c%ac%e6%b5%b7%e8%bb%8d%e8%89%a6%e8%89%87%e5%86%99%e7%9c%9f%e9%9b%86-%e8%88%aa%e7%a9%ba%e6%af%8d%e8%89%a6-%e6%b0%b4%e4%b8%8a%e6%a9%9f%e6%af%8d%e8%89%a6","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
