The White Plum: Biography of Ume Tsuda
Low stock: 1 left
Tsuda was sent from Japan to America at the age of six by the Japanese government to receive an American education and bring Western culture back to Japan. Furuki (Tsuda College) chronicles Tsuda's life in America, her return to an unfamiliar Japan, her studies at Bryn Mawr College and Oxford University, and the founding of her own English School for Women (later named Tsuda College) in Japan. Tsuda was an influential educator and cultural ambassador who founded the Japanese YWCA and corresponded with leading figures of her day, including Theodore Roosevelt, Charles Dickens, Helen Keller, and Florence Nightingale.

Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.
