FRANKLIN, Colin. EXPLORING JAPANESE BOOKS AND SCROLLS.
San Francisco: Book Club of California, (1999). Folio, xi, 156pp, over 90 full-color plates, including several double-page spreads. Color-illus. decorated boards with quarter blue silk back, fine in like slipcase.
First Edition, one of 450 copies printed at the Artichoke Press for members of The Book Club of California. The fascinating world of Japanese books and scrolls, unlike Japanese Ukiyo-e prints, has received little scholarly attention until Franklin's Exploring Japanese Books and Scrolls. Franklin's new book is a significant contribution to these lesser-known, but beautiful works with subjects ranging from the earliest printed Buddhist charms to spectacular painted albums by artists famous and obscure; from popular illustrated volumes to maps, guides and amusing English-language phrase-books.

The author chooses Nevada and Utah as her locale; the California reference is in the nature of a descriptive ‘Ghost town Directory’ to some seventeen of our State’s ghost towns. The introductory chapter, ‘Ghost Country,’ is a classic in desert literature” (Edwards, Enduring Desert p.179).
