By the author of "Saigon" and "Peking". Set in July 1853, this tale of the first clash between the fledgling modern nations of America and Japan illustrates the civilian hysteria provoked by the arrival of the Americans on steam-driven warships, and the mutual fears this set in place.

About the Author:
Anthony Grey became a foreign correspondent with Reuters after beginning his career in journalism in Norfolk, England, where he was born and educated. He reported on the Cold War from East Berlin, Prague, Warsaw, Budapest, Sofia, and Bucharest for two years before being assigned to China to cover the Cultural Revolution. There, his imprisonment by Red Guards in a house beside the historic Forbidden City of China’s emperors attracted worldwide headlines for over two years. After his release, he was awarded the Order of the British Empire (OBE) for services to journalism, and was named UK Journalist of the Year. He has gone on to become a radio and television broadcaster, bestselling historical novelist, independent publisher, and frequent public speaker.
Review:
“The historical panorama is told through people compellingly, with the potent gift of the storyteller, which keeps the reader tensely turning the pages. . . . The characters are three-dimensional, vivid; the aura of old Japan as strong and filmic as a ‘No’ drama, the love scenes as delicate, sensual and erotic as woodblock by Hokusai.” —Eastern Daily Press
“[Grey] has hit upon a winning formula for historical novels that rest on solid research and are painstakingly balanced.” —The Japan Times
