A Daughter of the Samurai tells the true story of a samurai and 's daughter, brought up in the strict traditions of feudal Japan, who was sent to America to meet her future husband. An engrossing, haunting tale that gives us insight into an almost forgotten age. Madam Sugimoto was born in Japan, not in the sunny southern part of the country which has given it the name of and quot;The Land of Flowers, and quot; but in the northern province of Echigo which is bleak and cold and so cut off from the rest of the country by mountains that in times past it had been considered fit only for political prisoners or exiles. Her father was a Samurai, with high ideals of what was expected of a Samurai and 's family. His hopes were concentrated in his son until the son refused to marry the girl for whom he was destined and ran off to America. After that all that was meant for him fell to the lot of the little wavy-haired Etsu who writes here so delightfully of the things that happened in their childhood days in far-away Japan.

2023 Reprint of the 1925 U.S. Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Born in 1874 as the youngest daughter of a samurai and former daimyo-a feudal prince under shogunate rule-the author grew up surrounded by ghosts of an aristocratic military lineage. Having fought on the losing side in the wars that installed the Meiji emperor, her family was reduced in power, status, and wealth but not in pride or, nor in devotion to its traditional roles and customs. Etsu's upbringing and education were conservative and old-fashioned, guided by the Shinto and Buddhist beliefs held by her family. The samurai virtues of honor, stoicism, and sacrifice applied to daughters and wives as well as sons and fathers: "The eyelids of a samurai know not moisture." Family turmoil, including her father's death and the return of her prodigal brother, led her on another path-to an English-language mission school in Tokyo and an arranged marriage to a Japanese businessman in Cincinnati, Ohio, where she became mother to two daughters before being widowed and returning with them to Japan. Her story, as she tells it, is: "How a daughter of feudal Japan, living hundreds of years in one generation, became a modern American." The clash of cultures, the momentous and sometimes hilarious misunderstandings between Japanese and Western ways are revealed in intriguing intimate episodes involving love, duty, and family ties. Living between a semi-mythical past and an emergent international present, Mrs. Sugimoto recounts the personal impact of the profound social changes brought about by Japanese American relations during the Meiji period (1868-1912) and offers an unexpected insider's view of traditional Japanese samurai family life as it is in the process of being swept away.

The story of Tokoyo is one of Japan’s lesser known legends, yet Tokoyo is widely recognised for her bravery and strength. Tokoyo grew up in a small fishing village as the daughter of a samurai. When her father is banished to the Oki Islands by his warlord, Tokoyo is left behind all alone. Through the strength of her love for her father, Tokoyo gives up everything she owns and travels far and wide to reach him. Yet one obstacle remains before father and daughter can be reunited: the fearsome Yofune Nushi - a sea serpent that terrorises the waters surrounding the Oki Islands. It is up to Tokoyo to take on this terrible beast and save the islanders from its monstrous ways.
