Reviews
"The major draw of the book is the colorful visuals that bring the text to life. Containing over 250 paintings, photos and illustrations, the book widens its potential audience to include young children and people who are not strong readers, as well as tapping into the interests of those who are drawn to samurai history and culture through visual media such as anime or gaming." -- The Japan Times, "The book presents a fascinating account of the historical role of the samurai in the military, political and social development of Japan; of their unique status in Japanese cinema, TV and other media; and of the enduring effects of their legacy on contemporary Japanese life." -- Acumen , the magazine of the British Chamber of Commerce in Japan

Synopsis
The ultimate visual guide to Samurai history and culture! The Samurai are continuously celebrated as the greatest warriors the world has ever seen. They ruled Japan for centuries, finally uniting the nation after a prolonged period of brutal war and bloodshed. Though famed for their loyalty, honor, and chivalry, they could also be treacherous, bloodthirsty, and merciless. This book tells the story of their rise and eventual demise through carefully curated images, both historical and contemporary, with an engaging and authoritative text by Gavin Blair--a noted commentator on all things Japanese. It exposes the myths surrounding the Samurai and reveals their many secrets, while examining their enduring influence on global culture in anime, manga, books, and video games. Gorgeously illustrated with color prints, paintings, and photos throughout, this book features detailed chapters on: The rise of the Japanese warrior class and how they established their grip on political power Rival clans, legendary Samurai, the unification of warlord states, and famous female Samurai Samurai "tools of the trade"--swords, bows, spears, guns, castles, and armor The cult of Bushido, the fabled warrior's code The transformation of Samurai into cultured "gentlemen" warriors, poets, and aristocrats Their legacy in modern world literature, media, film, and popular culture And so much more! A foreword by leading Samurai historian Alexander Bennett, the celebrated translator of works such as The Complete Musashi and Hagakure , introduces readers to these fascinating warriors, who continue to captivate modern audiences.

- *****- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaI've been looking to purchase this art book for some time, and I was super happy to have found it for a reasonable price through this shop/bookstore! They were super sweet with their communication, sending messages every step of the way. When the book arrived, it was packaged and treated with the upmost care (which was great since the day it arrived, it was raining out). This was an overall wonderful experience, and I would be more than happy to order from here again!Respuesta de ajbookstore- Votos a los que ha respondido el vendedor ajbookstore.- Votos a los que ha respondido el vendedor ajbookstore.Thank you for your thoughtful and heartfelt feedback!

- a***c (204)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaI am always amazed when ordering from the Japanese market. This vendor keeps that praise going. They emailed before sending to make sure I understood possible import fees, levied by my country not them of course. They emailed to let me know when it was shipped. And as seems to be the case when ordering from Japan, the packaging looks like it could survive a tornado. Very impressed with this vendor, and will definitely seek them out when making future G-Shock orders.
