The Fisher-Boy Urashima: A Japanese Fairy Tale is a book written by Basil H. Chamberlain in 1892. The book tells the story of a young fisherman named Urashima who saves a turtle from being tortured by some boys. The turtle, who is actually a princess, takes Urashima to her underwater kingdom where he spends three days enjoying the luxurious lifestyle. When Urashima returns to his village, he realizes that he has been gone for 300 years and everyone he knew has died. The book explores themes of adventure, love, and the consequences of making deals with supernatural beings. The story is based on a traditional Japanese folk tale and is accompanied by illustrations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
