評価・遺産
Regarded as an independent historian and writer who mined extensive primary sources to vividly portray diplomacy and figures of the Bakumatsu and Meiji eras. His major work 'Distant Cliffs' combines archival scholarship with readable narrative and left a significant mark on postwar Japanese historical writing. His papers were donated to the Yokohama Archives of History as the 'Hagihara Collection'.

豆知識
- The family name is correctly read 'Hagihara' but is sometimes (incorrectly) read 'Hagiwara'.
- 'Distant Cliffs' was serialized in the Asahi Shimbun from 1976 (with interruptions) and later compiled into 14 volumes.
- His papers were donated by the family to the Yokohama Archives of History and opened as the 'Hagihara Collection'.
- He died a few days after the final volume was published; an anecdote notes he wrote 'Don't give up' on the back cover of a notebook shortly before his death.
