Item description from seller

Language: English. About The Book: Java the Garden of the East (1897) by Eliza Ruhamah Scidmore is an in-depth travel account that explores the island of Java during the late 19th century. Scidmore, drawing from her firsthand experiences, provides vivid descriptions of Java’s natural beauty, from towering volcanoes to dense jungles. She delves into the island's cultural heritage, social life, and its role within Dutch colonialism. Scidmore offers a nuanced perspective on Java's landscapes, local customs, and people, while also addressing broader geopolitical and economic contexts. Her personal anecdotes and thorough observations make the book an invaluable work on Java’s history and society. About The Author: Eliza Ruhamah Scidmore (1856–1928) was an journalist, travel writer, and early advocate for the National Geographic Society, becoming its first woman board member. Known for her travel books on Alaska, Japan, Java, China, and India, she became a recognized expert on Japan with works like Jinrikisha Days in Japan (1891). Scidmore's vision of planting cherry trees in Washington, D.C. was realized in 1912, thanks to First Lady Helen Taft's support. She also contributed to the conservation movement and wrote for National Geographic. Scidmore passed away in 1928, with her ashes buried in Yokohama, Japan.
