Review # 1 was written on 2007-10-30 00:00:00 Jon Spins Not a picture book only, but a clever and simple overview of Japanese culture and art. I found it invaluable recently for scouting out sights in Kyoto and Nara. I would welcome any comments from Japanese or people who know about Japan.

Review # 2 was written on 2009-12-02 00:00:00 Brandon Gorte This book gives a really good overview of Japanese art and culture. It has smooth pages with lots of photos to show pieces of art, samurai swords, castles, large zen gardens and a few places that I've been to (which is cool to see in a book). I sometimes re-read this book.
