Includes Nagasaki, Osaka, Kobe and Kyoto, with a further chapter on Formosa (Taiwan). This title was second in the comprehensive series of guides compiled by the Imperial Government Railways of Japan, a project which was started in 1909 by the Minister of Communications Baron Goto. The idea was to produce 'A Japanese Baedeker' for Asia, which they successfully achieved by replicating the quality and detail of the maps and information.
