More than twenty years in the writing but publishing into paperback was the hard part! Now available on Amazon as well as The Beginner's Guide to Japan Book Store not to mention Kindle.
Is Tokyo Japanese? How exactly do I use chopsticks? Being exactly
wrong rather than inexactly right and why is English so difficult? These
and hundreds of other questions are explained in an interesting and entertaining
approach to life in Japan.
"But Why? The Essential
Beginner's Guide to Japan" is an invaluable companion for anyone on
their journey through the Land of the Rising Sun whether directing a taxi,
ordering pizza by telephone or trying to unravel the mysteries of reading and
writing kanji. And exactly why are there people waving red batons at each and
every construction site?
With over twenty years
experience on the ground in Tokyo, the I pass on the inevitable learning
from having made nearly every mistake possible for a foreigner arriving for the
first time. Japan is a wonderful country and “The Essential Beginner’s Guide to
Japan” covers everything in daily life I wish I'd known on January 7, 1992.
