I started writing this book, ""Nagasaki's Laundry Story"" because I received a document about Japanese laundry from Taeko Kihara, who lives in ""Togitsu Town"" near Nagasaki City in Nagasaki Prefecture where I live.

In the beginning, I was not very interested in ""clothing"". Because when I was in college, I was often teased by my friends as ""Rag clothing of Egoshi"". After I got married, my wife told me about my look, and I started to dress appropriately so that I could live a socially respectable life. For this reason, there are many cases where the cleaning shop takes care of my clothing, and they are washed into a crisp white shirt every time. But that was the reason for my interest in the history of cleaning.
