A revealing look at rural lives and lifestyles that have all but disappeared today.
A groundbreaking document of rural Japanese life, stories, and traditions from 1850-1960.
Tsuneichi Miyamoto (1907-1981), a leading Japanese folklore scholar and rural advocate, walked 160,000 kilometers to conduct interviews and capture a dying way of life. This collection of photos, vignettes, and life stories from pre- and postwar rural Japan is the first English translation of his modern Japanese classic. From blowfish to landslides, Miyamoto''s stories come to life in Jeffrey Irish''s fluid translation.
