Follow her journey as she: Witnesses her father prepare and perform ritual seppuku, and her mother burn down the ancestral homeBids an emotional farewell and sails across the ocean to marry a wealthy merchant in a new landReturns to Tokyo with her two daughters and mother-in-law, only to find her homeland as alien as America, forcing her to reinvent herself to provide for her familyEventually returns to America with her children after the death of her mother-in-lawAn international bestseller when first published a century ago, A Daughter of the Samurai remains a testament to a woman's resolve, strength, and endurance. This edition includes a new foreword by 2022 Pulitzer Prize finalist Janice P. Nimura.
