The Scottish Samurai
Thomas Blake Glover
In early l868, the last Tokugawa Shogun was toppled from power by anti-shogun rebels with the help of Scotsman Thomas Blake Glover. This man, virtually unknown in his own country, is famed in Japan both for his contribution to the birth of modern Japan and for his connection with the Madame Butterfly legend.
The Man Who
Joined Two Nations
Scotsman Thomas Blake Glover (1838-1911) was a merchant who came to Nagasaki in 1859 to work for Jardin Matheson, and two years later he founded his own firm – the Glover Trading Co. His achievement and efforts for Japan were so great, that he was honoured with the Order of the Rising Sun, in 1908.
