Description
"The material in this book was originally used as a guide for the hundreds of boys and girls attending the American schools on the military base of Okinawa. Until the Easter Sunday invasion in the year 1945, very little was known of this Pacific island of the Far East. Since then, Americans have played an important part in its reconstruction; and this book was compiled to further their understanding of this island civilization and its people and customs"--From Foreword: Revised Edition.
