Book Description
Excerpt from Japan and Her People, Vol. 2 of 2 Professor Chamberlain, writing of Ainu folk lore, gave three good reasons for which this strange people is worthy of being studied - "because its domain once extended over the entire Japanese archipelago, because absolutely nothing is known of its origin and affinities, and because it is, so to speak, almost at its last gasp." This last proposition, at least, is evident to any one who goes to the Hokkaido. Years ago, when Miss Bird followed her "Unbeaten Tracks" into the north, there were still plenty of Ainu not far from Hakodate, at Mori, on the south shore of Volcano bay, and elsewhere in southern Yezo; but as the Japanese have come, the Ainu have gone, always northward - where else, indeed, could they go?

Excerpt from Memoirs of a Captivity in Japan, During the Years 1811, 1812, and 1813, Vol. 2 of 3: With Observations on the Country and the People Purpose of conveying wood to the city on p'ack horses] This road was thickly imprinted with the tracks of horses'and men: there was no 'snow upon it, and therefore the Japanese could not trace our footsteps. It led in a straight northerly direction, and passed over the level summits of the hills. We Were not a little delighted at the discovery. And advanced with increased rapidity. I still felt much pain in my knee, and through the whole of my leg; but as we were walking on level ground, it was nothing to equal that which I experienced when ascending the side of the hill.

Book Description
Excerpt from Japan and Her People, Vol. 1 of 2 Every one who goes to Japan writes home at first on thin Japanese paper, unfolding yard after yard of the neat rolls, and measuring now and then, perhaps, to sec how much one really has written. That is in the early days, when all seems half unreal, when one says "fairy like" and "funny" at every other breath. But just because everything is so different, so utterly unlike all we have ever known, that former life itself seems presently to recede, to grow unreal; we cease to wonder, cease to find anything stränge at all. Then the long letters drop to a page or two, and in writing of the simplest experiences of daily life we stop to think half despairingly, "How shall I make them understand?" Out of that effort to be understood, and from the answers to the questions so frequently asked here in America, these rambling pages have grown.
