Very well researched (sometimes to the point of unnecessary detailed descriptions), very interesting setting, somewhat melodramatic writing style. Had not expected the second part of the book which focused mostly on the runup to WWII and the attack on Pearl Harbor, but it was interesting to read about what was going on in China at the time.
