Eliza Scidmore, a pioneering woman traveler and writer, tours Japan by rickshaw in the 1890s, before the country had fully opened to the West. She captures temples, gardens, festivals and manners with warmth and precision. A charming portrait of old Japan by the woman who later gave Washington its cherry trees.
