Omschrijving

""A Son of Satsuma: Or With Perry in Japan"" is a historical fiction novel written by Kirk Munroe and first published in 1901. The story follows the adventures of a young Japanese boy named Genji, who is born into a samurai family in the province of Satsuma during the mid-19th century. When Commodore Matthew Perry and his American fleet arrive in Japan in 1853, Genji becomes fascinated by the foreigners and their advanced technology.As Genji grows older, he becomes more interested in the outside world and eventually decides to join Perry's expedition to the United States. Along the way, he learns about American customs and culture, as well as the challenges faced by immigrants in a new land. Eventually, Genji returns to Japan with Perry and uses his newfound knowledge to help modernize his homeland and improve the lives of his fellow countrymen.""A Son of Satsuma"" offers a unique perspective on the opening of Japan to the West and the cultural exchange that followed. Munroe's vivid descriptions of Japanese life and customs, as well as his portrayal of the American characters, provide a fascinating glimpse into a pivotal moment in world history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
