Japan is an ancient country, but Yokohama is one of its youngest cities, founded in 1859. A few years later, a school opened atop a steep hill overlooking the harbor. A century and a half have passed, but Saint Maur still attracts students from more than three dozen countries. This book is the intertwined history of that school and that city.
Here are the stories of tough, courageous, and resilient women who pioneered international education in Japan’s most cosmopolitan city and major trading port. Saint Maur survived two world wars and a devastating earthquake, as well as religious persecution, political turmoil, and military upheaval. Destroyed and rebuilt over and over, it stands steadfast, home to generations of students and their families.
