Product description ※Please note that product information is not in full comprehensive meaning because of the machine translation.

The Shogunate Navy was established in 1855 following the "Shock of the West" such as the arrival of Perry in Chuko Shinsho. It grew into the first modern Japanese navy after the Kanrin-Maru's Trans-Pacific Voyage by Nagasaki Kaigun Denju and Katsu Kaishu, and the Baku-cho War. The Battle of Toba-Fushimi brought the collapse of the Tokugawa Government and the defeat of Takeaki ENOMOTO, who had been resisting at Fort Goryokaku, ended its historical roles, but the legacy of human resources and concepts was passed on to the Meiji Navy. The author, who has two faces as a history researcher and an active member of the Maritime Self-Defense Force, describes the Shogunate Navy from both historical and military aspects.
