Makers of Japan

by J Morris

Published 1 January 2010

First Published in 1906, Morris melds Japanese culture and historic past to create a discourse on the change in attitude to foreign powers in the 1800's. By providing a general impression of Japan and her people, and discussing the workings of reform, as exemplified in the lives of her patriots, the book explores Japan's status amongst the international community as an enlightened nation and modern powerhouse.
