An ultimate research tool for the study of Japanese prints, this publication represents eight years of research by the author William Green. It lists over 6000 publications dating from 1822 to 1993 and principally focuses on those in the English language. In addition, the inclusion of newspaper and periodical reviews of the major books and catalogs make it possible to trace the academic debate surrounding much of the literature regarding Japanese prints.
The bibliography is divided along thematic lines into fifteen chapters and also comprises three indexes, making it an easy-to-use reference work for students, scholars and collectors alike.

Schweitzer Klassifikation
William Green's (1915-2005) 'discovery' of Japanese woodblock prints came during his service as a medical service corps officer in Korea and Japan in the 1950s. In 1973 he founded the Ukiyo-e Society of America under whose auspices he has spent eight years recording and compiling the bibliography Japanese woodblock prints. He has also written several articles on the subject of Ukiyo-e and on early American collectors of this unique Japanese art form.
