Description
Time Magazine – September 22, 1941 – Vol. 38 No. 12 – Japan’s Kichisaburō Nomura
This original Time Magazine issue from September 22, 1941, features Admiral Kichisaburō Nomura, Japan’s ambassador to the United States, on the cover. As tensions between the U.S. and Japan escalated in the months leading up to the attack on Pearl Harbor, Nomura was a central figure in the diplomatic negotiations that sought, unsuccessfully, to avert war. This issue provides a revealing portrait of Nomura’s role, background, and the increasingly strained U.S.–Japan relations on the eve of the Pacific conflict.
The magazine also contains contemporary coverage of global events, including the European war front, U.S. defense preparations, and domestic political developments. Period advertisements and editorial features provide valuable cultural context and historical insight into the prelude to America's entry into World War II.
