This collection documents 15 years of Japan's wartime experiences from 1931 to 1945. The book is a testament to the blood, sweat, and tears of war photojournalists. It starts with Manchuria in 1931, spans the vast Chinese mainland, the fiercely hostile jungles of the South where heat and disease ravage humanity, and stretches from the Aleutians to the islands of the South Pacific, capturing images tirelessly for 15 years to convey the truth.(Quoted from Mainichi Newspapers' "Japan's Military Record," p. 262) After the war, when Japanese media outlets were ordered by the military to destroy all photographic negatives, many complied. However, Mainichi Newspapers preserved tens of thousands of negatives, believing that one day it would be possible to tell the true story of the war. Twenty years post-war, in 1967, the newspaper decided to publish this photo book. They restored each of the deteriorated negatives one by one to compile "Japan's Military Record." Despite its age, the book shows significant sun fading but no tears or stains that would impair reading. Only a few pages have folded corners.
