I'm trying to find long English-language books of the history of Japan and I haven't found it that easy. My goal is gather a few options that are 500+ pages. I was specifically looking for things about ancient Japan, but modern Japan is fine too. Preferably not centered on Japanese involvement in WW2 as I have already seen a lot of those. Biographies would be great as well.
Some that I know about are:
Emperor of Japan: Meiji and His World, 1852-1912 – Donald Keene
The Making of Modern Japan – Marius Jansen
Hirohito and the Making of Modern Japan – Herbert P. Bix
