In 2015, I serialized a translation of the book Valley of Lamentation (my translation, but also called The Devil's Valley in English) by Kimura Moritake, a record of the worst bear attack in human history which took place in Hokkaido in 1915. I reorganized some of the chapters and added some original material explaining the historical background.
