The complete work was published by the U.S. Congress in three volumes. With thanks to Schilb Antiquarian for the following commentary: "Matthew Perry was one of the most important American Naval officers during the 19th-century. While he was notable for his involvement in the War of 1812 and the Mexican-American War his most famous accomplishment came as the leader of a voyage to Japan beginning in 1852 aboard the East India Squadron. This series of short visits sought to pursue Japanese trade treaties but Perry and his crew discovered much more; Japanese and Chinese cultures politics coal mining and agriculture as well as attempts at occupation of Formosa. While many events came from this expedition according to Hill the most important result was that the visit contributed to the collapse of the feudal regime and to the modernization of Japan. The events of this expedition were recorded by Perry and Francis Hawks in the 1856 account. <br/> <br/> D. Appleton and Company hardcover‎
