Description
This rare Meiji 28 (1895) publication, titled “Sei Shin Chūyū Gadan” (Heroic Tales from the Sino-Japanese War), vividly portrays the Siege of Jinzhou (金州城攻防戦) through dramatic narratives and original illustrations.
Published shortly after the battle, this propaganda-style book aimed to inspire patriotism and valor among Japanese readers by glorifying the bravery of Imperial Army soldiers. Each page is a dramatic episode of assault, sacrifice, and victory — notably featuring an illustration of a soldier scaling the fortress wall under fire.
This was not merely a historical account, but a tool of national education, emotional mobilization, and imperial pride.
