{"product_id":"a-diplomat-in-japan-ernest-mason-satow-9781511566636","title":"A Diplomat In Japan","description":"A Diplomat In Japan: The inner history of the critical years in the evolution of Japan when the ports were opened and the monarchy restored, recorded by a diplomatist who took an active part in the events of the time, with an account of his personal experiences during that period. The first portion of this book was written at intervals between 1885 and 1887, during my tenure of the post of Her Majesty's minister at Bangkok. I had but recently left Japan after a residence extending, with two seasons of home leave, from September 1862 to the last days of December 1882, and my recollection of what had occurred during any part of those twenty years was still quite fresh. A diary kept almost uninterruptedly from the day I quitted home in November 1861 constituted the foundation, while my memory enabled me to supply additional details.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ernest Mason Satow\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1511566639\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781511566636\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/03\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 440\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.29lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.89d","brand":"Ernest Mason Satow","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43979821056255,"sku":"9781511566636","price":15.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_656ec80c-ca69-4f5b-9b35-0247c1ee05f4.jpg?v=1683247042","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-diplomat-in-japan-ernest-mason-satow-9781511566636","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
