The Art and Culture of Japan by Nelly Delay

A small book, packed with colour pictures, most of them excellent. There's therefore not a vast amount of text, but what there is is very good, bar some sidebar and caption-writing errors. A book for interested beginners, or someone wanting the pictures. Well worth grabbing if you find it cheap.
