Overall in quite good conditionObviously assembled by a Japanese civilian there are no images of the Japanese Army the album gives the impression of life in Manchuria under Japanese rule as a quiet contented and peaceful place. History tells a different story. As part of earlier treaty agreements the Japanese had troops protecting the railroad in Southern Manchuria. The Japanese wanted to expand their control over Manchuria so on September 18 1931; the Japanese planted a small explosive device next to the tracks owned by Japan's South Manchuria Railroad near Mukden. The explosion that followed became known as the Mukden incident and provided an excuse for the Japanese to seize all of the cities along the railroad. At the same time the Japanese army in Korea which was occupied by the Japanese sent forces into Manchuria and quickly seized all the major cities in Liaoning and Kirin provinces. All of this took place without the approval of the civilian government in Japan. The Japanese continued to advance despite Chinese opposition. By February 27 1932 the last Chinese opposing the Japanese were forced to surrender all of Manchuria was in Japanese hands. N.p. hardcover
