Commodore Perry's minstrel show a novel
Commodore Perry's Minstrel Show is the prequel to Richard Wiley's PEN/Faulkner Award-winning novel, Soldiers in Hiding. A sword-swinging page-turner infused with a heady mix of Japanese etiquette, American ideals, and Machiavellian philosophy, Wiley's novel sparkles as it shapes history into an enlightened drama of the earliest moments of globalization.
