"Ten Japanese women from various periods in various situations are going to make their entrance on stage in this book. We have chosen these ten from among the figures introduced in the series "Women in History", which appeared in The East Magazine and met with a most enthusiastic response. Their stories have almost all been entirely rewritten and much new material has been added.[.] All of the women you will read about lived in this male-dominated world and in this society they fought their own battles. Some emerged victorious, others fell in tragedy. Not a one of them ever lost her pride as a woman." --Preface. Near fine in near fine (-) (price-clipped) jacket; a couple light scratches to rear, now in archival mylar. First Edition (presumed; no prior editions or printings cited).
