i have been listening to Dan Carlin's Podcast on Imperial Japan and WW2 in the Pacific and have taken an interest in the whole subject of Imperial Japan, does anyone know of any good books on the subject?

Imperial Tragedy by Thomas Coffey is fascinating. It covers two months in detail, December 1941 and August 1945, but fills in a lot of the blanks before and after.

I enjoyed Edwin Hoyt's Japan's War. This book examined the origins of Japan launching WWII back to the 1850s.
