## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Imperial Germany's Pacific ambitions thwarted
  

*by C***P on Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2019*

The depth of research is remarkable, with maps, illustrations and recent photographs of Tsingtau localities apropos the siege.  It is an absorbing story of the politics leading to Japan taking the clever opportunity to side with the Allies in 1914. The story is further enhanced with vignettes of the escape of sole German aircraft and its aviator to neutral China, Japan's use of early aircraft carriers at Tsingtau, and the part played by the Royal Navy and token British Army battalions, whose cooperation with Japanese land forces was at times uneasy.  About the only item overlooked was Germany's legacy in endowing Tsingtau with today's foremost brand of Chinese beer.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great book for military and geopolitical enthusiasts alike!
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 8, 2019*

Although only a few chapters of this book are dedicated exclusively to the actual siege of Tsingtau, the account of the siege is quite thorough and gripping. Equally interesting is the process in which the author takes a seemingly obscure battle in a comparatively unimportant theater of the war, and brings it to life with a vivid description of the geopolitical situation in Asia at the outbreak of the war. I highly recommend this to anyone with an interest in the First World War, imperialism, geopolitics or the rise of Japan.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great History of an overlooked campaign.
  

*by D***F on Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2019*

Good book covers much more than the Japanese campaign.  Very detailed look at German colonial expansion in the Asia Pacific area and then the operations across the Pacific in the early months of World War 1.
