Noto An Unexplored Corner Of Japan is a travelogue written by Percival Lowell, an American businessman, author, and amateur astronomer. The book describes his journey to the Noto Peninsula, a remote and lesser-known region of Japan, in the early 20th century.Lowell's vivid descriptions take readers on a journey through the rugged landscape of Noto, with its misty mountains, rocky coastlines, and picturesque villages. He also provides insights into the local culture and customs, including traditional festivals, cuisine, and crafts.Throughout the book, Lowell shares his encounters with the people of Noto, from fishermen and farmers to artists and scholars. He offers a unique perspective on their way of life and the challenges they face in a region that is both beautiful and isolated.Noto An Unexplored Corner Of Japan is a fascinating read for anyone interested in Japanese culture, travel, and history. It offers a glimpse into a part of Japan that is often overlooked by tourists and provides a valuable record of a bygone era.Toward the middle of the afternoon we reached a part of the coast locally famous or infamous, for the two were one; a stretch of some miles where the mountains made no apology for falling abruptly into the sea. Sheer for several hundred feet, the shore is here unscalable. Nor did it use to be possible to go round by land, for the cliffs are merely the ends of mountain-chains, themselves utterly wild and tractless.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
