- Synopsis
- Guido Herman Fridolin Verbeck (born Verbeek) (23 January 1830 – 10 March 1898) was a Dutch political advisor, educator, and missionary active in Bakumatsu and Meiji period Japan. He was one of the most important foreign advisors serving the Meiji government and contributed to many major government decisions during the early years of the reign of Emperor Meiji.“DR. WILLIAM E. GRIFFIS'S present biographical sketch of Guido Fridolin Verbeck, a missionary, and above all, a pioneer of the higher education in Japan, will be found a worthy complement to the same author's life stories of Commodore Perry and of Townsend Harris”.-NY Times
