Description This book serves as a comprehensive guide to the islands of Seto Inland Sea, offering an in-depth exploration of their history and landscapes through the lens of historical research. From the mythological Eastward Migration of Emperor Jimmu to the Genpei War, the rise and fall of pirate clans, the port towns that facilitated maritime trade, and the industrial and military remains that shaped modern Japan, the Seto Inland Sea region contains approximately two thousand years of layered history. The book presents a comprehensive overview of various aspects of these islands—from the Murakami pirate clans and sacred islands of ancient faith to port towns that flourished as strategic maritime hubs, islands that have transformed while supporting modernization, small islands that continue unique community revitalization efforts, and even landscapes featured in films and dramas. It systematically organizes the relationship between the sea and human history in a continuous narrative. Beyond mere tourist information, this book provides readers with a clear understanding of the historical context behind these landscapes.
