Algernon Bertram Freeman-Mitford Baron Redesdale's Books

Mitford was a gifted writer whose descriptions of Japan during the critical time of transition from a feudal to a modern state in the late nineteenth century are a testimony to his narrative skills, accuracy and objective reporting.

Compiled by one of the first foreign diplomats in Japan, this famous collection of classic tales covers an engrossing array of subjects: ghost stories, fairy tales, folklore, a fascinating eyewitness account of a hara-kiri ceremony, and gripping narratives of vampires and samurai. A treasury of information on Japanese locales, customs, and characters, this volume delights as it entertains, chronicling acts of heroism, devotion, ruthlessness, and chivalry that illuminate the island nation's culture.
