Progress in the Mikado's Empire (Classic Reprint) - Tapa dura

Excerpt from Progress in the Mikado's Empire

This book will be best appreciated by those who are best informed. It must not be measured by its sise, for it has been compressed deliberately. In eight tightly-packed chapters, Dr. Armstrong has managed somehow to place before us in a clear, vivid and living way the story of Japan from those semi mythical, semi-historical times when Japan began to be, down to these aspiring, expanding, mighty, and yet dangerous days of the present.
