Refs: Cordier Japonica, 290. Palau 226932 'Muy raro'; Streit-Dindinger V, 1163. <br> Pineyro's history of the Jesuit Mission in Japan covers the period between 1612 and 1615, in five books. In 1614, the Tokugawa Shogun, Ieyasu expelled Christian missionaries from Japan, in an attempt to stop Christian evangelist efforts started in 1549. Foreigners were banished and Kirishitans (Japanese Christians) were persecuted from religious practice or made to flee to Macau or the Philippines. Before the start of the persecution and martyrdom of Christians by Hideyoshi (Ieyasu's predecessor), Japan had the largest Christian population not ruled by a European country. Pineyro was believed to be in Japan during this period and wrote first-hand about the deterioration of Japanese relations and ultimate destruction of most of the Christian community.
