Description
Volume IV carries the Far East crisis past spring. Chapters run from May into December 1932. Manchukuo's birth and the League's slow answer fill them. Guarding Americans then takes a long file. Peking's legation quarter must stay neutral ground. Arms sales, claims, and trade taxes follow. Shanghai's settlement troubles fill their own run. Press curbs on Americans draw protest too. Japan's politics close the contents list. Party rule collapses there, the file reports. Anti-American talk is used to whip up war feeling.
Amends for a beaten consul close the Japan file. A mid-volume talk parses a French objection. Had Paris objected, Hornbeck asks, or only thought of it? The fine point mattered at the League. The volume is stalemate documented daily.
