Book Description
Originally published in 1905. This book on bushido, a code of moral principles, is a notable contribution to the reconciliation and unity of east and west, explaining and defining the sense of chivalry which lies at the heart of the Japanese soul. Nitobe (1862-1933) studied in the United States and Germany, held various positions in education in Japan, and from 1920 to 1926 worked in Geneva as Under-Secretary General of the League of Nations.
