In 1848 Ranald MacDonald became the first native speaker of English to teach that language in Japan -- during a 10-month stay in that restricted nation. In this facsimile reprint of his autobiography -- a limited edition published posthumously in 1923 -- MacDonald tells of his adventurous life. Born in 1824 in Oregon, MacDonald was the son of an official in the Hudson¿s Bay Co., and a Chinook Indian. At the age of 24 he arranged to be set adrift from an American whaler, landing on the shore of Rishiri Island. Later he traveled in captivity to Nagasaki, where he tutored 14 Japanese in the English language, several of whom later served as interpreters when Commodore Matthew Perry arrived in Japan in 1854 to negotiate a treaty.
