Product Information
Thank you for checking out this book by Theophania Publishing. We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you soon. We have thousands of titles available, and we invite you to search for us by name, contact us via our website, or download our most recent catalogues. TWELVE hundred years ago a Chinese historian stated that On the eastern frontier of the land of Japan there is a barrier of great mountains, beyond which is the land of the Hairy Men. These were the Ai, so named from the word in their own language signifying man. Over most of the country of these rude and helpless indigenes the Japanese have long since spread, only a dwindling remnant of them still inhabiting the island of Yezo. Since the early days when a couple of them were sent as curiosities to the Emperor of China their uncouth looks and habits have made them objects of interest to more civilised nations. Many European writers have described them, but hardly any with such opportunities as Mr. Basil Hall Chamberlain, Professor of Philology at the Tokyo University, who has taken down from the Ais the present collection of their tales, and prefaced it with an account of their ways and state of mind. It would hardly be for me to offer information on a subject so excellently handled, but the request of the Editor of the Folk-Lore Journal that I would write an Introduction enables me to draw attention to the views put forward by Professor Chamberlain in ather publication, which, being printed in Japan, may be overlooked by many English folk-lore students, even of those interested in the curious Ai problem.

Very timely delivery, safely packaged and as described. Good communications. All good with this seller.
Not so much with his chosen courier. I was home all day but no attempt to deliver in person, package was left, unannounced, in an exposed, unsafe, visible location right at my front fence line. Very unsatisfactory.

Be mindful that just because item says sent..this is not necessarily correct. You can think it's gone missing when it hasn't, as I did. My item said sent 2 1/2 weeks before it was posted when I know it only takes 2- 3 days tops when you're in the same state. Other than that, very happy with the purchase & seller responds quickly to communication.
