Matthew Calbraith Perry Boeken
Commodore Matthew Calbraith Perry van de United States Navy was een sleutelfiguur in de maritieme geschiedenis, vooral beroemd om zijn doorslaggevende rol bij de opening van Japan voor het Westen. Zijn uitgebreide militaire carrière omvatte dienst in belangrijke conflicten, waaronder de Mexicaans-Amerikaanse Oorlog en de Oorlog van 1812. Perry's beslissende acties en diplomatieke inspanningen bij het Verdrag van Kanagawa vormden de internationale betrekkingen diepgaand en luidden een nieuw tijdperk in.
