Editorial Reviews

Internet Book Watch
Illustrated with color photos and black & white drawings enhance Evelyn Kaye's entertaining travelogue as she follows the 1878 route of Victorian traveler Isabella Bird through northern Japan. The adventure of a woman traveler in that part of the world in those days was so remarkable that Evelyn discovered that more than a hundred and twenty years later Isabella Bird was still remembered with her book still in print (in Japanese), community memorials erected in her memory, and the subject of a Tokyo television show! Adventures In Japan is a unique, totally engaging, wonderfully well written, enthusiastically recommended account of a personal journey through Japan as seen through the eyes of two women travelers, one from the 19th century and the other from the 20th.
—Internet Book Watch
From The Critics

A fascinating account!, Adventures in Japan provides a modern woman’s story of following Victorian adventurer Isabella Birds’ 1878 route through northern Japan, where Bird is still remembered. Kaye’s three-week journey provides a fascinating account of both her experiences in northern Japan and Bird’s lasting influence in the region.(The Bookwatch: Midwest Book Review July 2000)
