Short History of Japan
Short History of Japan
More Books:
Moving beyond traditional tourist-board clichés to consider Japan's own view of its past, values and culture, Christopher Harding traces Japan's rich history over several millennia.
Beginning with its earliest coastal communities through to the spread of Buddhism, the rise of the warlords, the promise and menace of the West and Japan's own empire-building, exploring how a distinctly Japanese society and culture was forged. A sensory, tactile history, where the reader experiences all the pleasures of a visit to Japan.

What’s in the box?
Our products are made with love and care in Japan, but it’s with you where their story lives on. And for that to happen, we need to make sure they arrive with you in one piece! We carefully wrap each item in bubble wrap and traditional Japanese newspapers (you’ll often find a Japanese crossword or sudoku to solve!). You’ll also receive a short guide on how to care for and cherish your new tableware. Sustainability is important to us and we’re working hard on ways to keep items safe while being kind to the planet, too.
