Book Details
First Sentence
"It would be hard to defend on purely literary grounds the writings of the years immediately following the Meiji Restoration of 1868, but in the books of anecdotes and curiosities which were the best-sellers of the day, we find many fascinating glimpses into the life of the Japan which was just emerging."
