Inscription reads: To Dear Friends--Eva and Irv--in memory of a very pleasant visit. From Mark May, 1941. Mark Gayn, born Mark Julius Ginsbourg (21 April 1909 - 17 December 1981) was an American and Canadian journalist. Mark Julius Ginsbourg was born in 1909 in Barim, Manchuria, in the Qing Empire to Russian-Jewish parents who had migrated from the Russian Empire. He went to school in Vladivostok in the Soviet Union and then in Shanghai, China. He was accepted to Pomona College in Claremont, California, in the United States where he majored in political science. Following his graduation from Pomona, he entered the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism, graduating in 1934. Ginsbourg got into his career in the 1930s as a stringer (journalism) for Washington Post in the Shanghai. He returned to the U.S. shortly after World War II broke out in Europe, changing his name to Gayn to prevent Japanese reprisals against his brother Sam, who remained in Japanese-occupied Shanghai. He filed reports on North Korean dictator Kim Il Sung's repression and, as one of the first Western journalists admitted into China in the mid-1960s, he managed to criticize the country's Maoist regimentation. Within the U.S., Gayn's work appeared within the New York Times as well as in Newsweek and in Time magazine. This book was released May 1, 1941 and thus is a prescient analysis half a year before the Japanese Empire attacked the United States at Pearl Harbor and elsewhere. The author had been a foreign correspondent with a specialty in Asia for two decades. Based on a Kirkus review: The Pacific shown as the setting for a "bitter and portentous game of power politics" -- due, he said last Spring, for a showdown this year. The author addresses England's debacle of appeasement in the East; Moscow, the mystery factor; the Axis Powers using Japan as their catspaw; and the U. S. virtually face to face with an aggressor nation. An appraisal of the past supporting a projection of the next move. Emile Herlin (maps) (ilustrador).…
