Hr Morris evidently knows the country well, and is a strong believer in its 

 future : - •: will be found a useful summary of recent history, abounding in good 

 character skefa r.es, accompanied with photographs, of the leading men." — Times. 



h really a remarkably complete account of the land, the people, and the institu- 

 tions of Japan, with chapters that deal with matters of such living interest as its 

 growing industries and armaments, and the origin, incidents, and probable outcome 

 of the war with China. The volume is illustrated by a Japanese artist of repute ; it 

 has a number of useful statistical appendices, and it is dedicated to His Majesty the 

 IGkado. "— Scotsmten. 



Hi Morris, who writes, of course, with thorough local knowledge, gives a very 

 ■ -. jete and eminently readable account of the country, its government, people, and 

 resource. . . The work, which contains a large number of portraits and other illustra- 

 tions, is decidedly ' on the nail, 5 and ma commended not only as a book to read. 

 but as of value for reference, — West m mater Gazette . 



- -efore us a clear view of the point which has been reached. His work is 

 historical, social, and descriptive ; we see in it the Japanese of to-day as he really is. 

 Mr Morris has also something to say on the Japanese at home — how he eats, how he 

 dresses, and how he comports himself ; while wider issues are discussed in the chapters 

 treating of the administration of the islands, their ports, communications, trades, and 

 ;.::-. j. :-.v:.:.5 — G '.::■■:. 



A well-proportioned sketch of the Japanese of to-day, so recent as to include the 

 results :: Bm war. . . Tnere is much else I should like to quote in this able and 

 interesting book. It has a good chapter on natural history, and an excellent chapter 

 on diet, dress, and manners ; it gives just enough of Japanese history to help the 

 ordinary reader who wants to lean his Japan on easy terms ; it has also most useful 

 and attractively conveyed information in its brief account of the principal cities of 

 Japan, communications and armament, language and literature, mines and minerals."

" He summarises clearly, concisely, the existing knowledge on the Japanese Parlia- 

 ment.- - stem, territorial and administrative divisions, natural history, domestic 

 and pat" 1 "* 1 customs, dynastic changes, old feudal institutions, town populations, 

 industries, mineral and other natural resources, railways, armaments, the press, and 

 other subjects too many for enumeration. Even the chapter on language and litera- 

 ture makes an appalling subject interesting. . . . Mr Morris has brought his very use- 

 ful account of Japan up-to-date. He gives a good summary of the recent war with 

 China, and then p roceeda to make some well-considered suggestions on a matter of 

 s up r em e importance to Europe no less than to the two Empires of the Far East."
