As we saw them: The First Japanese embassy to the United States

---

A detailed historical and cultural study of the 1860 Japanese diplomatic mission to America—the first official Japanese embassy sent abroad. Miyoshi examines how the envoys perceived American society, politics, technology, and culture during their journey, drawing from diaries, letters, and contemporary accounts. The book highlights the contrasts between Japanese expectations and the realities they encountered, revealing moments of curiosity, misunderstanding, and cultural negotiation. By situating the embassy within the broader context of Japan’s early encounters with the West, Miyoshi provides insight into how this mission shaped Japan’s understanding of international relations and influenced the nation’s path toward modernization.
