Unbeaten Tracks in Japan by Isabella L. Bird | Project Gutenberg
Touring Japan - with a focus on several of the central farming areas and Hokkaido - as a solo female traveller in the summer of 1878. Well-written, sympathetic (well, about as much as could be expected at the time) and overall an interesting overview of many aspects of Japanese society at the time.
