Excerpt from Japan in Days of Yore In order to do something, however humble, towards disclosing the treasures that lie concealed in hundreds of books which few foreigners are able to read, and fewer still have the leisure to study and to reproduce in another tongue, I have undertaken to write a series of tales bearing on the Japan of the past. The series is to consist of translations, in some cases, paraphrases or adaptations, in others, of well known Japanese stories and biographies.
