Nathan Hopson unravels the contested postwar meanings of the Northeast Tohoku region of Japan to reveal the complex and contradictory ways in which that region has been incorporated into Japan's shifting self-images since World War II.

Trade Review
[An] erudite and engaging analysis…Hopson’s skillful narrative never loses sight of its central insights, resulting in a fluid and fascinating study of the ways in which historical (re)interpretation proves both changeable over time and consequential in establishing—or reinterpreting—a nation’s cultural character and values. -- L. A. Makela * Choice *
