Book excerpt: Account of a journey by motor car through India, China, and Japan by Harriet White Fisher in 1909-1910. Fisher describes her journey as "the trip of a woman who had grown a little weary of the details of a useful but somewhat heavy business (her company manufactured anvils!), and sought recreation under India's burning sun, in Ceylon, China, Japan, in many places where no motor car had ever taken man or woman before." Her adventure attracted hundreds of excited spectators in cities around the world and was the subject of dozens of contemporary newspaper articles.
