Journalism and the Russo-Japanese War: The End of the Golden Age of Combat Correspondence

This book examines the journalistic coverage and challenges during the Russo-Japanese War of 190405, what some have called World War Zero.

They argue Japan helped to shape the modern world of journalism by creating and packaging truth. See more
