Jinbocho: Tokyo’s Used Bookstore District: A Writer’s Bookshelf (11)

Along with Ueno Park, the used bookstore district in Jinbocho is one of my favorite places in Tokyo. I spent hours browsing there earlier this month. I have found so many invaluable books there over the years.

Recently at Jinbocho, I found this gem. Published in 1939, it includes the most important primary sources to focus on the origins of Mitogaku.

The Imperial Chrysanthemum on the front cover is interesting (1939).
