In Lotus-Land Japan is a travelogue written by Herbert George Ponting, a renowned British photographer and explorer. The book was published in 1922 and chronicles Ponting's travels through Japan, a country that was still relatively unknown to the Western world at the time.Ponting's account is highly detailed and provides a fascinating insight into Japanese culture and society during the early 20th century. He explores the country's history, religion, art, and architecture, and describes his encounters with the Japanese people, both in rural villages and bustling cities.The book is illustrated with over 100 black and white photographs taken by Ponting himself, which provide a stunning visual record of Japan's landscapes, architecture, and people. Ponting's photographs capture the beauty and serenity of Japan's natural scenery, as well as the vibrancy and energy of its urban areas.In Lotus-Land Japan is a captivating and informative read for anyone interested in Japan's history, culture, and society. It offers a unique perspective on a country that has undergone significant changes in the decades since Ponting's visit, making it a valuable resource for scholars, historians, and anyone with an interest in Japan.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
