Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from My Travels in China, Japan and Java, 1903

From the standpoint of the traveller, Japan is perhaps one of the most interesting countries in the world; the country itself is full of delightful and varied scenery, while its people possess a charm of appearance and manner unlike anything of the kind to be met with elsewhere.

Parts of China and Java were also visited by me but of the people of those countries I have little to say in praise. The Chinese appear to be indifferent to the course of present events they seem to possess no national ideals, and I was much struck by the obvious individual selfishness of the people, among whom patriotism and public spirit had no existence. The Javanese are absolutely apathetic a display of energy on their part seems an impossibility. Both countries are, however, interesting and well worth a visit.
