Description and Table of Contents

Description

The Illustrated London News, launched in 1842, was the world's first illustrated newspaper and an immediate success. Its first report on Japan, however, was not until eleven years later. Japan and The Illustrated London News provides a 'one-stop' access point to the complete record of reported events relating to Japan in the critical half century following its opening to the West.
