Excerpt from Japan Day by Day, Vol. 1 of 2: 1877, 1878-79, 1882-83 I first visited Japan solely for the purpose of studying various species of Brachiopods in the Japanese seas. While pursuing my work in a little laboratory established at Enoshima I was invited by the Educational Department to take the chair of Zoology in the Imperial University in Tokyo. During my residence in Japan of nearly four years I kept a daily journal to avoid the duplication of home letters. A portion of my sojourn had ended before records were made of subjects which might afterwards be published. These, however, were special in their nature, such as notes and sketches relating to the dwelling-house and associated features. These memoranda formed the material for my book entitled Japanese Homes and Their Surroundings. For this reason scant reference to these subjects is made in the present work, though a few sketches that appeared in that book are reproduced. I made no effort to record or collect data upon subjects in which I was not specially interested. Having little interest in Japanese religions - Buddhist or Shinto - or in Japanese mythology and folklore, no studies were made of these subjects. With no interest in geography, I hardly learned the names of rivers crossed, or regions traversed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
