About
This book records the landscapes of the quiet port towns located in the Sanriku district, between the years '91 -'93.
"On March 11 2011 ,all of a sudden this area was hit by "The Great Higashinihon Earthquakes". Now, those scenes have became "lost scenery", since almost all the cities disappeared with the earthquake and tsunami.
Yasunori Hoki and I decided to turn them into book, to leave this beautiful scenery in history with people's memory."
