About this book
Home Life in Tokyo is a work by Jukichi Inouye with numerous illustrations, dated Tokyo 1910. The preface says the object of the work is to give a concise account of the life we lead at home in Tokyo. The preface notes that there are already many excellent works on Japan whose authors are most of them Europeans or Americans, and says that a description of Japanese life by a native of the country might not be without interest.
The text describes how the obi, for ordinary wear, is folded in two along its length and wound twice round the waist. The text describes a funeral procession led by the guide, who is followed by bearers of lanterns and branches of cleyera japonica. The text says bean-curd shares with the tai the distinction of having a special treatise dealing with a hundred ways of dressing it.
