Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
This second volume about Japan's samurai commanders covers the generals of the later years of the Age of the Warring States, a period when only the most able leaders survived. This was a time when the prowess of a commander was measured as much by his strategic and organizational abilities as by his individual fighting skills and he was expected to give as great a show of strength in the council chamber as on the battlefield. This book discusses the lives, battles and wider roles of talented commanders such as Oda Nobunaga and Toyotomi Hideyoshi - great men who stood out prominently due to their elaborate suits of armour and helmets, their stunning personal heraldry and their great armies.

I love this book. I love it. I carry it with me when ever I'm out and need a quick read or need to cite a date or name to a "samurai buddy". IT has some of the most legendary warlords in existence including my absolute favorite, Date Masamune. The paintings are wonderful and dead on accurate to famous armors. I lent this to a friend at work and it was so good his dog chewed it, needless to say he is replacing it but I still can't part with the original I bought a few years ago. The very first time I glanced at the pages I was absorbed. Turnbull does it again! A great "mini" guide for samurai fanatics and a supreb introduction to those with just a mild interest.
