Dear Gentleman

 

Short while ago I found this beautiful book from Yasukuni-shrine, tied in violet velvet...

 

 

maybe someone here can help me to find out the meaning of this rare book.....??

 

Lot of photos inside...

 

 

It seems to be about the importance of the yasukunishrine  during the war....

 

 

Unfortunately my Japanese is too bad ....

 

 

 

Thank you in advance!

 

Volker

There is a 1965 book entitled Yasukuni 靖国.  The National Diet Library (NDL) states it was authored and published by the Yasukuni kenshō-kai 靖国顕彰会 and is 248 pages long.  I compared pictures of your book to others and this is the book you have.  However, one book was dated 1964 so there could be different editions or printings of it.
