Second edition, large 8vo, 6 vols., 12 plates, 17 maps (11 folding), and 2 folding charts; text in Japanese; light edge toning, else fine in fine dust jackets. These "six volumes of verbatim reports of interviews conducted by Japanese social scientists in Northern China in 1940-44, represents . a rare genre in the literature of…modern social anthropology." "The field research upon which this work is based was conducted by a team of 14 social scientists under the auspices and financial support of the South Manchurian Railway Company. Originally conceived as a 10-year project, the field work was terminated in the fifth year because of the worsening war-time conditions; however, most of the work had already been competed before 1943. In addition to gathering general background data, the field workers concentrated on seven major aspects of rural social life - Kinship, community, tenancy, land, finance, tax, and water." (Befu, review in American Anthropologist, vol. 64, no. 6).
