most interesting single generation
in the history of the world, you

affairs Of Japan.
Born in the Middle Ages, young
man when Peary opened his country
to the outside world, already a ma

was abolished and Japan became
modern nation, and now an old but
active man seeing Tokyo erect

Only once in history has such
career been possible.

as they find customers just there individual ped
