About the product

Japan has led the world in high-speed rail development and its industry is nearly unmatched in sophistication - yet just over 100 years ago, people and goods moved mostly on foot and by ox cart. The past 120 years of Japanese transportation history is described for the first time in English by distinguished historians who consider road, river, coastal and rail transport.
