Issued serially while the war was being fought, the work assembles a near-contemporaneous chronicle of the first Sino-Japanese War — its campaigns and engagements, dispatches, illustrations, and reportage — gathered into a single monumental run of fifty parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFew primary sources convey the texture of the 1894–95 war as immediately as this serialised record, compiled and printed in step with events rather than in retrospect. A complete fifty-volume set is a genuine rarity: such serials were read hard and rarely preserved entire, and surviving runs of this scope seldom come to market. For historians of modern East Asia, of Meiji-era print culture, and of the war that reshaped the regional order, it is a documentary source of the first magnitude.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA substantial and authentic artefact of its moment, well suited to a serious collection of military-historical documents and East Asian historical materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eOffered by KT Vintage, drawing on decades of trusted international sales to discerning collectors and institutions across Europe, the Americas, Asia, and Oceania.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"KT Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52455393689881,"sku":"N0000003035","price":110800.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/2264\/9113\/files\/11091306_69101356466b0.jpg?v=1780292652","url":"https:\/\/kujira-vintage.myshopify.com\/products\/true-record-of-the-sino-japanese-war-nisshin-sens%d0%be%cc%84-jikki-complete-set-of-50-volumes-1894","provider":"KT Japan Curio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
