I found this to be a slightly humorous, but quality overview of what life was like for a samurai during this period of medieval Japanese history. It's not detailed look at the history, so don't go into it expecting a complex view of this period, but if you'd just like to get some sense of what it was like to be a samurai then this is as good a book as any. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
