A Diplomat in Japan

A Diplomat in Japan

 Literature
5.0
LARGE PAPERBACK. Sir Ernest Satow's well-known best-seller \"A Diplomat in Japan\" (first published in 1921) which is still widely available is based mainly on his diaries (\"journals\") for 1862-69. The unabridged diaries in this volume, carefully transcribed from original documents held at the U.K. National Archives and published for the first time on lulu.com, tell the story of Ernest Satow's subsequent years in Japan (and two home leaves in Europe) up until the start of 1883. This fully annotated book includes an introduction by former U.K. Ambassador to Japan Sir Hugh Cortazzi, six black & white illustrations, a map, a select bibliogaphy, a chronology and an index. This book is part of a series in which some of the extensive and hitherto unpublished Satow Papers are being made available in print and as a download to scholars and the general reading public on lulu.com by Ian Ruxton.
