The Fisher-Boy Urashima: A Japanese Fairy Tale (1892) is a classic children's book written by Basil H. Chamberlain. The story follows the adventures of a young fisherman named Urashima, who saves a turtle from being tortured by some boys. As a reward, the turtle takes Urashima to the underwater palace of the Dragon King, where he meets and falls in love with the beautiful princess Otohime. Urashima spends three days in the palace before returning to his village, only to find that 300 years have passed in the outside world. The book explores themes of love, loyalty, and the passage of time, and is beautifully illustrated with traditional Japanese artwork. This timeless tale has captured the imaginations of generations of children and adults alike, and remains a beloved classic of Japanese folklore.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
