Sewn paperback, VG. 110pp, edges of the covers a little rubbed, bound Yotsume Toji fashion which is becoming a little loose, the book now in a custom made portfolio with ribbon ties. The Kojiki is the oldest surviving chronicle of Japan, dating from the early 8th century. Written by O-no Yasumaro for the Empress Gemmei, it is a collection of myths concerning the origin of the four home islands of Japan. Basil Hall Chamberlain [ 1850 - 1935 ] was professor of Japanese at Tokyo Imperial University & was one of the leading British Japanologists of the late 19th C. He was the first to translate the Kojiki into English [1882].

All our books offered are in at least good condition, with the majority very good and better. Descriptions are brief, but PLEASE ask for more detail if required. We can scan books & jackets, signatures etc. MINOR inscriptions ignored in NON FICTION titles, unless really detrimental to the book - but then a 150 year old ink name adds character surely? Modern hardbacks are described as being Cloth bound, even though predominantly they come in paper covered boards pressed to look like cloth. Book grades are given book then dustjacket (if any) Running from F - Fine, VG - Very Good, G - Good, P - Poor. A fine book will look almost like the day it was bought, a VG one will have some evidence of prior ownership, G means a nice clean copy, obviously secondhand & P implies a COMPLETE copy that has suffered a hard life & will need some TLC. We take into account the books age when grading, so a 250 year old book graded as VG will look more second hand that a 5 year old book graded the same. On the Net since 1998. All prices are in GBP. Payment can be made by Visa, Mastercard, Switch & Solo or JCB. After your order is placed, FAX your card details etc to +44 (0)1635 48444. Any Book may be returned - but please let us know prior to sending a book back. We wrap each book individually and don't just stick em in a jiffy bag with a prayer. Paperbacks are packed with card stiffeners. WE BUY BOOKS! Happy reading!
