Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gleanings From Japan The following pages may be called the result of gleaning in the field of Japan by the author during an opportunity of revisiting the country in the years 1883-84. Owing to the number of articles published in journals, periodicals, and transactions by the many writers upon Japanese subjects, there is always a risk of an author going over ground already worked out. The author was not aware, till lately, that Mr Gubbins had written so fully upon the subject of Roman Catholic Missions from the native point of view. Perhaps other handfuls of these gleanings have been already in possession of the public. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
