Have you ever wondered what Gunma would be like had you come over a hundred years ago?
A Handbook for Travelers in Japan is the 1903 version of the modern Lonely Planet travel guides and provides an interesting look at Japan at the turn of the 20th century, including several pages on Gunma.
You can read the whole book for free online or download a copy in many e-publishing formats here. Pages 176-193 focus mostly on Gunma. Enjoy!
