For the last four hundred years there has existed in Japan a very definite point of view or way of life associated with the ceremonial drinking of tea. It is called Cha-no-ye, literally Hot Water for Tea, or Chado, the Way of Tea, and those who follow it are know as Chajin or Tea-men. It might be described as a household sacrament of esthetics, economics and etiquette. It has been and still practised by a very large number of the most cultivated people in the land, by statesman, soldiers, artists and men of business, as well as by artizans and ordinary people. And so its influence has penetrated deeply into the details of the everyday life of the community and has taken a large part in forming its tastes and habits. It is little known outside the country because nothing much has been written about it by Europeans.This book gives a detailed description of all aspects of the tea ceremony and Cha-No-Yu as well as Tea Masters and the different schools of tea.

The author wrote a tale about a sorcerer in his childhood neighborhood. 'What it is--fable, philosophical allegory, lyrical satire, or just a story with pictures--perhaps only a bulbul could say.' It is more than a story for children. Translator Burton Raffel said, 'Mr. Mandel sparkles in all directions. ... He knows the value of speech and of silence. And all this is woven into a tale so effortlessly told that one reads it over and over, for the pure joy of Mr. Mandel's art. In short: a masterpiece.'
Illustrator Lo Koon-Chiu added a Chinese scroll in ink on many pages and on the cover.

Here for the first time is a comprehensive and eminently readable history of this fateful island, presenting the full sweep of its engrossing history. The eminently qualified authors of this work have spent years of studious research in gathering and working over the voluminous source material upon which the book is based. Though comprehensive and scholarly, it is neither exhaustive nor exhausting. Its presentation is factual, well-balanced and temperate, succinctly written in an easy style certain to win the appreciation of students using it as a textbook as well as the casual reader enjoying this excursion into a small but vital far-away land about which little is generally known. Paul Carano, at the time of publication a member of the faculty at the College of Guam, had been intensely interested in the collection of basic source material on the island and in the preparation of a comprehensive history of Guam ever since he first started teaching there in 1947. His interest increased to the point where he finally spent two uninterrupted years and considerable personal funds in completing the research and in working over his vast accumulation of pertinent and frequently difficult-to-procure source material. Though anxious at first to complete the understanding himself, he was most appreciative of the indispensable and extensive cooperation of Pedro C. Sanchez in bringing this panoramic project to its successful completion. Dr. Sanchez, who travelled extensively throughout Southeast Asia and the North American continent, was a native Guamanian, the son of an outstanding Guamanian educator, and himself a former President of the College of Guam as well as a former Commissioner of Education in the Virgin Islands. At the time of publication he was serving as Associate Director of the Peace Corps in the Philippines.
