New York and London: Harper & Brothers Publishers, [1942]. . 8vo, blue linen, gilt titling on spine; original dust jacket mostly present, with a few nicks and tears. Third Edition, or First Edition Thus, containing Clare Boothe Luce's "The Valor of Homer Lea on pp. ix - xxxviii. The first edition was published by Harper in 1909, the second in 1912 (the year of Homer Lea's death) also by Harper.Written shortly after the Treaty of Portsmouth which ended the RussoÐJapanese War (10 Feb.,1904 Ð 5 Sept., 1905). It was a conflict that grew out of the rival territorial ambitions over Manchuria and Korea The major theatres of operations were Southern Manchuria, the seas around Korea, Japan, and the Yellow Sea. Theodore Roosevelt pesided over negotiations.Lea (187-1912), authored two works on geopolitics: the present work predicted the rise of Japanese militarist aggression and a Japanese empire in the Pacific, while "The Day of the Saxon" (commissioned by British Field Marshal Lord Frederick Roberts) predicted the rise of a greater German Reich based on national supremacy and ethnic purity. Neither of these books sold particularly well in America, but "The Valor of Ignorance" sold 84,000 copies in Japan and impressed both Generals Adna Chaffee and Douglas MacArthur, who tried unsuccessfully to make it compulsory reading at West Point. The Japanese officers having studied of "The Valor of Ignorance", avidly and put its deadly lessons into practice in 1941. 'The Day of the Saxon" sold only 7,000 copies; however, one of those to get a copy was German General Karl Haushofer whose ideas may have influenced the development of Hitler's expansionist strategies, although Haushofer denied direct influence on the Nazi regime. The books both contained a ring of truth about future events, but entrenched isolationists in America were not about to have their views challenged by a young, unknown upstart, and he was effectively ignored., New York and London: Harper & Brothers Publishers, [1942]., 0<
