Based on a unique set of personal documents, Ōhara's biography offers a detailed account of the life of an engineer navigating the transition from the feudal to the modern era. It also provides insights into the way in which modern technical knowledge was imparted at Japan's first institution of higher technical education, the ICE, and how it was reflected by students. Closely linked to this education, his career offers a novel perspective on the contribution of ICE graduates to Japan's industrial development.
