Yedo and Peking: A Narrative of a Journey to the Capitals of Japan and China - Cambridge Library Collection - Travel and Exploration in Asia

Scottish botanist Robert Fortune (1812–80) travelled widely in Asia in search of new plant varieties and agricultural techniques. This lively narrative, first published in 1863, focuses mainly on his journey through Japan shortly after foreign visitors were permitted entry for the first time in over two centuries.
