[James]

Captioned color photos of netsuke with a bit of background on each figure.

A little outdated, so there's a few terms used that people would find offensive now. But it's an interesting look at Japanese culture by means of 100 pictures and descriptions of netsuke. It's my first book on the subject, so I thought it was really cool. All I really knew before was from seeing a display in a museum.

A good introduction to netsuke.
