THE PERRY EXPEDITIONS AND THEIR AFTERMATH
A trove of manuscript insider reports & accounts on the two Perry expeditions and the turbulent Bakumatsu period that followed
Several dozen manuscripts in various formats incl. long folded sheets stitched pamphlets sewn volumes and letters. Japan: ca. 1853-63.<br/> <br/> A substantial group of documents revealing internal high-level debates and discussions in response to Commodore Perry’s landings and later controversies that arose as Western powers established a foothold in Japan. This is an exceptional collection filled with top-secret information on government intrigues as the Japanese state responded to aggressive foreign expansion and dissenting groups within the government urging top-to-bottom reforms.<br/> <br/> The manuscripts touch upon pivotal events in Japan’s history:<br/> <br/> –Commodore Perry’s two expeditions July 1853 & February-March 1854 and the resulting ratification of the Treaty of Shimoda.<br/> <br/> –Japanese translations of the treaties signed with the United States Russia France and the United Kingdom from 1854 to 1858.<br/> <br/> –The assassination of Ii Naosuke in March 1860 also known as the Sakuradamon Incident which precipitated a violent backlash against foreigners under the banner of Sonno joi “Honor the Emperor expel the barbariansâ€.<br/> <br/> –General dissatisfaction with the bakufu and efforts to reform it.<br/> <br/> –The attempted assassination of Ando Nobumasa a chief councillor during this period.<br/> <br/> –The Namamugi Incident in September 1862 when the British merchant Charles L. Richardson was killed by Satsuma domain warriors.<br/> <br/> –The bombardment of Kagoshima August 1863.<br/> <br/> Among all these materials we must highlight several examples of manuscript kengen proposals and commentaries written by aristocrats with policy advice on the difficult situations faced by the Japanese state. These offer compelling perspectives on the most pressing dilemmas of the day. While they were not composed by the decision-makers these documents are filled with the minutiae and data employed in the policy-making process.<br/> <br/> All of the items are in a fine state of preservation.<br/> <br/> ⧠John McMaster “Alcock and Harris. Foreign Diplomacy in Bakumatsu Japan†Monumenta Nipponica Vol. 22 No. 3/4 1967 pp. 305-367. unknown

Thomas Ashe (1770-1835)
Travels in America Performed in 1806 for the Purpose of Exploring the Rivers Alleghany Monongahela Ohio and Mississippi and Ascertaining the Produce and Condition of their Banks and Vicinity
<p>ix366 pages. Small octavo 7 1/4" x 4 1/4" in the original leather binding with black label in gilt to spine. Howes:354 First printed in 1806 in London in three volumes. Second printing.<br /><br />Thomas Ashe 1770-1835 was born in Dublin Ireland and was a soldier and memoirist. Much of his life was checkered with intrigue and fraud. His Memoirs and Confessions 1815 is an autobiographical account of 'criminal and delinquent' escapades beginning with the seduction of a girl in France. In America he edited the National Intelligencer and was arrested when attempting to steal treasures from churches in Latin America. His Travels in America first appeared in 1806. The narrative chronicles Ashe's travels by flatboat down the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers in 1806 and is one of the first travelogues written by a foreigner to comment specifically on the American inhabitants of the region. A unrestrained hatred of Americans can be found throughout the work. While the account is interesting and highly readable it was to create quite a stir and added to the wave of anti-British sentiment that would ultimately lead to the War of 1812.</p> Printed Newburyport [Mass.] Reprinted for W. Sawyer and Co. by E.M. Blunt hardcover
