The Sho-Gun is an original comic opera written by George Ade and first published in 1904. The story is set in Japan and follows the adventures of American tourist, Tom Pinch, who becomes embroiled in a plot to overthrow the Sho-Gun, the country's ruler. Along the way, Pinch falls in love with the Sho-Gun's daughter, Princess Yum-Yum, and must navigate the treacherous waters of palace politics to save her from harm. The opera is filled with catchy songs, witty dialogue, and colorful characters, making it a delightful romp through turn-of-the-century Japan. With its blend of East-meets-West themes and lighthearted humor, The Sho-Gun remains a beloved classic of American musical theater.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
