From the Preface, "These books are not only designed to please children, but to show the manners and customs of the ancient and modern people of Nippon. The fine illustrations afford an important aid in this respect. It is through the eye that the understanding itself is most quickly reached." Emily Bishop Boulton, born in England in 1855, travelled out to Japan with Bishop Poole, the first English Bishop in the countr arriving in Osaka in December, 1883. She joined Miss Oxlad in the Eisei (Eternal Life) school, the nucleus of the Bishop Poole Girls' School, where she also worked for some years after its opening in 1890.
