Mr. Edward Greéy was a member of the famous expedition which in 1854 caused "the land of the Rising Sun" to be opened to Eastern civilization. He afterward returned to Japan, "living among its estimable people, studied their language and literature, and what they termed 'learned their hearts.'" He is thus qualified to be a trustworthy guide to this, the youngest and oldest of nations. His pen-pictures of Japanese scenery and customs are graphic, and by the introduction of spicy conversation are made dramatic. Markets and bazaars, shaké shops, and Buddhist temples, jin-riki-shas and jugglers, are all brought before the eye.
