Sport And Travel In The Far East is a travelogue written by Joseph Clark Grew, an American diplomat who served as the United States Ambassador to Japan from 1932 to 1942. The book was first published in 1910 and describes Grew's experiences during his travels in China, Japan, Korea, and Manchuria. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of Grew's travels. He writes about his experiences hunting tigers and other wild animals in Manchuria, exploring the ancient temples and shrines of Japan, and attending traditional Japanese festivals. Grew also provides insight into the political and social climate of the Far East at the time, discussing issues such as the Boxer Rebellion in China and the Russo-Japanese War. He also shares his observations on the customs and traditions of the people he encountered during his travels, offering a unique perspective on the Far East from a Western point of view. Overall, Sport And Travel In The Far East is an informative and engaging travelogue that provides a fascinating glimpse into the culture and history of the Far East at the turn of the 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
