American Alice Mabel Bacon lived in Japan for many years before writing this famous study, a diary-like essay that explains many social customs that are still alive in the present day. "It is of the neglected half [of Japan] that I have written, in the hope that the whole fabric of Japanese social life will be better comprehended when the women of the country, also the homes that they make, are better known and understood."
