Description

"This is the first in-depth study of the early trial-and-error experiences of trade and contracts between Japanese and Western merchants active in the Japanese treaty ports in the eight-year period immediately following the opening of the ports in 1859. This study also provides a rare glimpse into some aspects of early Meiji commerce as well as the human dimension of what was involved in putting Japan back on the world trade map after more than two centuries of international seclusion."--BOOK JACKET.
