Francis Hall (Japan)

Francis Hall (1822-1902) was an upstate New York book dealer who went to Japan in 1859 and became the founder of Walsh, Hall and Co, America’s leading Trading House in 19th Century Japan.〔 Ernest Satow, ''Records of a Diplomat,'' Tokyo: Oxford University Press, 1968, p. 27. Satow wrote that it was the "leading American firm" in Yokohama when he arrived in 1862. See also M. Paske Smith, ''Western Barbarians in Japan and Formosa in Tokugawa Days ,1863-1868'' (Kobe: J.L.Thompson & Co. 1930),p. 266. Harold S. Williams writes: "Walsh, Hall & Co. was doing an enormous business; the partners were looked upon as merchant princes, and everyone recognized it as ranking among the No. 1 American firms.: See ''Foreigners in Mikadoland ''(Rutland, Vt.: Charles E Tuttle & Co., 1963, p.204〕 Hall served as Japan correspondent for Horace Greeley’s ''New York Tribune'' during the final years of the Tokugawa Shogunate, publishing nearly 70 articles in the ''Tribune''. While in Japan he kept a detailed journal that has become a major source on life in Japan during the middle of the 19th century.〔 Hall's Journal and ''New York Tribune'' articles have been published by F.G. Notehelfer of UCLA in ''Japan Through American Eyes: The Journal of Francis Hall, Kanagawa and Yokohama, 1859-1866.'' (Princeton N.J.: Princeton University Press, 1992),(isbn 0-691-03181-9) pp. 1-652. This work also includes an extensive sketch of Hall's life. An abridged paperback version of the journal has been published as ''Japan Through American Eyes, The Journal of Francis Hall, 1859-1866'' (Boulder, Colorado: Westview Press, 2001),(isbn 0-8133-3867-0) pp. 1-465.〕 Having made a fortune in trade between Japan and the United States he returned home in 1866 and became a philanthropist and world traveler.
