Above the Clouds: Status Culture of the Modern Japanese Nobility

Editorial Reviews
Robert J. Smith, Monumenta Nipponica
"Anyone who passes up this book on the assumption that it deals with a population best forgotten or that its appeal is limited to those with antiquarian interests is badly mistaken. . . . Do not fail to read this book for you will learn much about both the vanished world of its title and contemporary Japanese society."

Mark Morris, Times Literary Supplement
"Compelling. . . . Full of information and unforgettable anecdotes. . . . A major contribution to the study of Japanese society and history."
