About this book

"Unbeaten Tracks in Japan" by Isabella L. Bird is a travel book published in 1880. Written as letters to her sister, it chronicles Bird's 1878 journey from Tokyo to Hokkaido with her Japanese interpreter, Ito. The forty-six-year-old Englishwoman ventured into remote northern regions rarely seen by Westerners, documenting Japanese houses, clothing, customs, and the natural environment during the early Meiji Restoration. Her detailed observations include encounters with the Ainu people and stark depictions of rural poverty.
