Japanese Letters is a book that contains correspondence between two Japanese men, Tokiwara and Yashiri, who share their impressions of Western men and manners. The letters were written in the early 20th century and provide a unique perspective on the cultural exchange between Japan and the West during that time. The author, Commander Hastings Berkeley, provides an introduction to the letters and offers insights into the historical context of the correspondence. The book offers a fascinating glimpse into the attitudes and perceptions of the Japanese people towards Western culture and society. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Japanese history and culture, as well as those interested in cross-cultural communication and understanding.1891. The Commander has translated and edited the correspondence between Tokiwara and Yashiri with the thought that after having heard and read so much about Japan and its people from Europeans, it may prove interesting to hear what Japanese themselves have to say about Europe and Europeans in relation to this metamorphosis of the laws, customs and political institutions of their country.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
