@jeremyyellen Very good point. I haven't looked into this yet in detail, but it seems not just Ishiwara Kanji, but the two enjoyed quite some fame at the time as a couple. (https://t.co/ir0zZZhqx8) Fascination with Ishiwara continued unabated after the war; not so much for Itagaki. https://t.co/BQ4DkQ7MFv
Strongly recommend @Mujakura Danny Orbach’s excellent study on the Imperial Japanese Army. See my review here:

Another new publication worth checking out: a collection of essays and newly available documents on the Kaisei-maru, the western-style warship built by Sendai Domain at the end of the Tokugawa period.

@ClintonGodart The exiled regime’s authority flowed from the Emperor via the Tokugawa family, just as before, that’s how it was justified on paper. The Ezo ‘Republic’ is an exonym (see https://t.co/2wMa1HcoGE) https://t.co/rW4TN0O7vA
@ClintonGodart @dfedman @RBJapanHistory @jeremyyellen Kuga Katsunan read a French edition of the book (that's how I remember) and Minyūsha translated Bloch's work into Japanese in 1904. https://t.co/2soWHvjRd6
