Exclusive Bundle Deal: 30% Off

Red Star versus Rising Sun Volumes 1–2 presents a complete and authoritative account of the little-known but strategically decisive undeclared wars between Imperial Japan and Tsarist Russia, and later the Soviet Union, in the Far East during the early twentieth century.

Together, these two volumes trace the rise and expansion of the Imperial Japanese Army from the late nineteenth century through its clashes with the Red Army at Lake Khasan in 1938 and the decisive battles of Nomonhan (Khalkhyn Gol) in 1939. The series examines doctrine, culture, organisation, and equipment on both sides, and provides detailed reconstructions of land and air operations that shaped Japanese and Soviet strategic thinking on the eve of the Second World War.

Richly illustrated with period photography, maps, and specially commissioned colour artwork, this two-volume bundle offers exceptional value and is ideal for readers seeking a comprehensive, operational-level study of the Soviet–Japanese border wars and their global consequences.
