These are the edited (i.e. transcribed, annotated and indexed)
diaries of Sir Ernest Satow (1843-1929) for the six years from the
time when he left Japan early in 1883, through his time as Agent
and Consul-General and subsequent promotion to Minister Resident at
Bangkok, until his return to London and his request in December
1887 for another posting on health grounds. The period includes his
visits to Japan (officially for rest and recuperation) in 1884 and
1886, and to Paris, Rome and Lisbon for research into the Jesuits
in Japan conducted early in 1888, and the confirmation of his
appointment to Montevideo in October of that year. Throughout the
period his ultimate goal was promotion to Minister in Japan, which
he achieved in 1895. The original diaries are in the National
Archives (UK). Published for the first time on lulu.com.
