The foundations of Japan
John William Robertson Scott
To understand Japan, go to its villages. Robertson Scott traveled six thousand miles through the rural districts, studying how the farming people lived, worked the rice, and held their communities together. A rich, sympathetic portrait of the countryside that fed and shaped a nation. Meet the Japanese people where most of them actually lived.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
