A brilliant linguist, Sir Ernest Satow (1843-1929) was recruited as a student interpreter into the consular service in 1861. He was sent to Japan, where he witnessed the Tokugawa Shogunate's overthrow and the Meiji Restoration. This 1921 account is based on the diaries Satow kept whilst in Japan.
Originally published in 1908, this book presents the content of the Rede Lecture for that year, which was delivered by Sir Ernest Satow at Cambridge University. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in European history and diplomacy.
Ernest Satow was one of the most respected British diplomats, particularly in Japan. Since publication in 1917, 'Satow' has become the standard work on the practice of diplomacy, being regularly updated. This first edition provides an illuminating insight into international relations before the age of the telephone and e-mail.
