Description

Explore a unique perspective on nineteenth-century Japan through the abridged journal of Francis Hall. As a leading business pioneer, Hall provides a rare look at the era leading up to the Meiji Restoration. Originally an upstate New York book dealer, Hall traveled to Japan in 1859 to gather research for a book and to act as a correspondent for Horace Greely's New York Tribune. This historical account follows his journey from a researcher to a major figure in international commerce. After recognizing the massive potential for trade in Yokohama, he helped establish Walsh, Hall, and Co., which grew into one of the most significant American trading houses in the country. This book offers a detailed view of the commercial and social landscape of Japan during a time of massive transition, making it an essential read for those interested in Asian history and the history of international trade.
