His contemporary Japan was at the beginning of what would become a the highly nationalized, militarized and horrific Japan of World War II. He may have had a glimmering of the wonderful modern and traditional place that Japan would become after the destruction of that deliberately corrupted Samurai self-image. This book represents his understanding of what Japan had been and how he wished the Western world would come to appreciate the older culture, and specifically its ingrained ancestor worshiping history.
