Earlier this year a propaganda manga was published to scare people into protesting against plans for a law to safeguard human rights in Japan. Naturalized Japanese Kaoru Miki has translated the manga into English and added comments by human rights activist Debito Arudou, also a naturalized Japanese. This is recommended reading.

The now legendary Sir Ernest Mason Satow (1843-1929) was a member of the British legation in Tokyo for twenty-one years. This classic book is based on the author's detailed diary, personal encounters, and keen memory. In it, Satow records the history of the critical years of social and political upheaval that accompanied Japan's first encounters with the West around the time of the Meiji Restoration. Fascinating.
