The lancashire cotton industry and its rivals: international competition in cotton goods in the late nineteenth century: britain versus India, China and Japan
The study, based on his original research, undertaken in Oxford and subsequently in Japan, covers the important nexus established between Japan and the United Kingdom in the nineteenth century with the export of cotton textiles (of higher quality) from Britain to Asia. This historical link between key industries in our two countries is now happily mirrored in current scholarship, of which this is a prime example. It is no function of a brief preface to replicate the conclusions of detailed research but to emphasise the wider context of the research which lies behind the text of this book, which I am most happy to endorse.
Doctor Kawakatsu's career, uniquely, embraces distinction as a scholar and now as a diplomat, which gives his work both depth and width of perception. It will stand as authoritative evidence of his major status in this field of research, both in Britain and Japan.
