NOTA (š)(LEarly Japanese Railways : 1853-1914L takes readers on a fascinating journey through the rise of Japanese railways amid the period of rapid modernization ocurring during JapanLs Meiji era. Leaving behind centuries of stagnation and isolation in 1853, Japan would emerge into the 20th century as a modern, increasingly industrialized state. The development of railways was a significant indicator of cultural and technological evolution during this pivotal time in JapanLs history. Dan FreeLs rare photographs and original historical research concerning JapanLs early railways combine to form a richly detailed account that appeals to students of Japanese history and railfans alike.@ŸDan Free is a writer based in New York City. Free has studied East Asia for years, particularly its adaptation of, and modernization through, railway technology. He has spent over 25 years assembling the collection shown for the first time in these pages.)
