Lloyd George's War Memoirs


Lloyd George's War Memoirs
Originally uploaded by nofrills.

The war-time British prime minister is talking about the war (WW I). Published in Japan decades ago -- just before the WW II.

Found at a used-book store in Tokyo, for only 500yen (about 2.50 British pound). Interesting read, especially when you consider the fact that Japan went to the war against US, UK and other allied countries in less than two years. This book tells you not only what Lloyd George wrote, but also how the Japanese looked at Britain, just before the war.


LANGUAGE TIPS:
the Japanese used to write from right to left. Now we write from left to right.
