Excerpt from The Garter Mission to Japan
The return voyage across the Pacific was in every way delightful; and a prolonged tour in hospitable Canada, covering many thousand miles, enabled the Mission to form some estimate of the growing prosperity of that wonderful Dominion.
But the record which is contained in the following pages deals only with the main object of the expedition. A detailed account of the outward and homeward journeys would by itself fill a volume. It is not possible to do more here than to give expression to a very real feeling of thanks for the splendid hospitality of which the Mission were the grateful recipients in the East as in the West.

Impresión bajo demandaLibrería: Forgotten Books, London, Reino Unido
Calificación del vendedor: 5 de 5 estrellas
Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the journey of a British diplomatic delegation to Japan in 1906. The mission's primary objective was to grant Japan the Order of the Garter, but the book also documents the wider cultural exchange and diplomatic overtures. The author provides insightful observations of the changing face of Japanese society. The book describes a Japan in transition, a blend of ancient traditions and burgeoning modernity. The author captures both the awe-inspiring grandeur of the Emperor's court and the vibrancy of a rapidly evolving nation. The narrative is rich with descriptions of Japanese customs, art, and the everyday lives of its people. Beyond its historical value, the book offers a nuanced exploration of Japanese culture and diplomacy. The author's reflections on Japan's emergence as a global power and its delicate balancing act between tradition and progress remain relevant today. This book serves as a fascinating window into a pivotal moment in Japan's history, valuable for historians, students of diplomacy, and general readers alike.
