An anthology of impressions, 'snapshots' and anecdotes, this collection of vignettes conveys vividly what it was like to be a foreigner in Japan in Victorian times. The focus is upon Tokyo, Osaka, Kobe, Yokohama, Nagasaki and the other Treaty ports and their vicinity. This amusing and evocative book throws a revealing light both upon the Victorian experience of Japan and upon Japan itself.
First published in 1987, this title is part of the Bloomsbury Academic Collections series.
Sir Hugh Cortazzi was British Ambassador to Japan from 1980-1984.
