Excerpt from Mountaineering and Exploration in the Japanese Alps
I have found a grandeur and a wildness in the scenery such as is seldom associated with the typical Japanese landscape, whilst the primitive customs and superstitions of the hospitable peasants with whom I had the privilege of much pleasant intercourse, are in their way scarcely less remarkable. The substance of several of these chapters has already appeared, in another form, in the columns of the Japan Mail, to the Editor of which I am glad to acknowledge my obligations.
