Japan from China'. Japan from China. Newly prepared for Harrison’s 1944 atlas and also reproduced in Fortune in December 1943, Japan from China presents East Asia from the continental side. The perspective makes Japan less an isolated island empire than a power exposed to China, Korea, Manchuria and the western Pacific approaches. Harrison’s accompanying text stresses both opportunity and difficulty: China offered the closest Allied continental approach to Japan, but American material had to reach it over some of the world’s highest mountain barriers. In June 1944, when China remained blockaded yet indispensable, the map turned the China theater into a potential offensive platform. by Harrison, Richard Edes. Published Drawn 1943.
