Chapter one of this book introduces and describes the Tokugawa system of government. The principal goal of chapter two is to detail the actual visits of Commodore Perry's squadron, the initial responses to his visit by the Japanese and the efforts of the European powers to also sign agreements with the Japanese as soon as possible. Chapter three outlines the primary consequences of Commodore Perry's visit to Japan. Chapter four highlights the Meiji Restoration and efforts of the new Japanese leadership to create a government, initiate comprehensive reforms and begin to address some of the country's most pressing international problems. These introductory chapters are followed by a selection of twenty original-source documents as evidentiary support. A bibliography and index are included"--
