Japanese Inn
Oliver Statler
The beguiling story of the Minaguchi-ya, an ancient inn on the
Tokaido Road, founded on the eve of the establishment of the Tokugawa
shogunate. Travelers and guests flow into and past the inn―warriors on
the march, lovers fleeing to a new life, pilgrims on their merry
expeditions, great men going to and from the capital. The story of the
Minaguchi-ya is a social history of Japan through 400 years, a ringside
seat to some of the most stirring events of a stirring period.
