The samurai were the most skilled elite group of combatants the world has ever seen. Their name means one who serves. Years of training, discipline, and self-sacrifice combined with advanced weaponry and unprecedented tactical acumen created a force unmatched over centuries of Japanese history.
Samurai explores the essence, truth, and wisdom of these remarkable warriors. It features renowned samurai warriors, their weapons, armor, and military strategies and illuminates their unwavering Bushido philosophy – the strict code of honor requiring absolute loyalty to their master above all else, and ritual suicide in preference to dying a dishonored death.
This book explores the spirit, body, and minds of these sublime paladins who long ago passed into legend, but still live on today.
