Wear, All Gilt Brilliant But Some Browning To Spine Cloth, Bumping, No Fraying, Hinges Cracked, Small Bookstore Label Of Smith Brothers, Oakland, Circa 1908. Ownership Signatures Of Henry Atherton Schulze Dated May 1908 At Nippon Mura ( Then Later Inscribed In Dec. 1920 To Alfred Kemp). The Earliest Public Garden In Saratoga, California, Nippon Mura Was Located Near The Rail Line Of The Interurban Railway. Nippon Mura Was Created In 1902 By Mr. And Mrs. Theodore J. Morris. They Acquired 30 Acres On The Newly Opened "Blossom Trolley Line", The Electric Railway That Ran From Downtown San Jose, Through Los Gatos And Back Down Saratoga Avenue Into Town. Mr. Morris Was Connected With The China Japan Trading Company In Yokohama For Thirty Years, And When The Couple Retired To California, They Re-Created A Japanese Style Inn. At The Time Nippon Mura Was Opened, The Saratoga Area Was Already Well Known For Its Summer Homes And Retreats. Nippon Mura Offered Summer Cottages In What Is Described As A Semi-Oriental Style, Situated In A Garden Landscaped With Wisteria, Iris, Cherry Blossoms And Chrysanthemums. The Torii Tearoom Was An Important Garden Feature. Nippon Mura Attracted Distinguished Guests From Both Other States And Foreign Lands. Of The Three In Saratoga, It Is The Garden That Has Mostly Disappeared, It'S Charming Structures Now Nearly Buried Under Layers Of Additions. Most Of The Scenic Garden Has Been Paved For A Parking Lot. Today The Site Of Nippon Mura Is Known As Hacienda Inn, A Restaurant And Hotel Located On Highway 9 Between Los Gatos And Saratoga. But Garden Sleuths May Recognize The Significance Of The Area By The Giant Eucalyptuses That Still Appear In The Parking Lot. The Oriental Style Eaves And Rooflines Of The Early Building Are Also Still Visible, Although Finding The Shapes Among The All The Subsequent Additions Is A Challenge.

Per Wikipedia, John Clarke Stobart ( 1878 - 1933), Commonly Known As J. C. Stobart, Was A Classical Scholar, A University Of Cambridge Lecturer, An Hm Inspector Of Schools And The Bbc's First Director Of Education. After The War, He Helped Organize The 1924 British Empire Exhibition At Wembley And In 1925 Joined The Bbc As Its First Director Of Education. He Was Responsible For Two Long-Lasting Programs, Children's Hour And The Epilogue And According To One Source Suggested The Bbc's Motto, 'Nation Shall Speak Peace Unto Nation]'. He Also Proposed Creating A New Cultural Network, To Be Named The Minerva Programme, After The Roman Goddess Of Wisdom, But This Idea Was Turned Down And Was Not Realised Until The Creation Of 'The Third Programme' At The End Of The Second World War. Stobart Became Well-Known All Over The World For His Regular New Year's Eve Broadcast, 'The Grand Good-Night'. He Disagrees With Edward Gibbon's Pessimistic View Of The Decline And Fall Of The Roman Empire, Pointing Out That 'The Mere Notion Of Empire Continuing To Decline And Fall For Five Centuries Is Ridiculous' And Remarking That 'This Is One Of The Cases Which Prove That History Is Made Not So Much By Heroes Or Natural Forces As By Historians', Since 'If All The Roman Historians Had Perished And Only The Inscriptions Remained We Should Have A Very Different Picture Of The Roman Empire, A Picture Much Brighter And, I Think, Much More Faithful To Truth.' He Admires The Romans For Their Law, Discipline, Engineering And Especially Their Sanitation, But It Is Clear That He Prefers The Greeks For Their Art, Philosophy, Mathematics And Literature.
