The Battleship Yamato
This richly detailed tribute to the legendary Yamato is now back in print by popular demand. Equipped with the largest guns and heaviest armor and having the greatest displacement of any ship ever built, the Yamato proved to be a formidable opponent to the U.S. Pacific Fleet in World War II. This classic in the Anatomy of the Ship series contains a full description of the design and construction of the battleship including wartime modifications, and a career history. This is followed by a substantial pictorial section with rare onboard views of Yamato and her sister ship, a comprehensive portfolio of more than 600 perspective and three-view drawings, and 30 photographs. Such a handsome and thorough work is guaranteed to impress modelmakers, ship enthusiasts, and naval historians.
Tourism, Memorials and Landscapes of Violence
The book focuses on tourism, memorial sites of the Holocaust and the Pacific War and the management practices for the visitors that they attract. It provides an account of landscapes of violence as millions of people in Central and Eastern Europe, China, Japan and the United States were affected by wars, conflicts and crises. A special feature of the book is to reconstruct the changing management practices and the significance these heritage sites have attained for different visitor groups and the local populations, and to critically assess the current situation 80 years after the events. The book discusses the new directions of dark tourism, thanatourism and dissonance in heritage tourism in contemporary tourism research. Several case studies and in-depth analysis of memorial sites allow the reader to understand the consequences of past or ongoing policy changes. This book will appeal to students and researchers in the fields of tourism, heritage, history, cultural studies, anthropology and human geography.
