The Samurai Paperback / softback
by Anthony J Bryant
Illustrated by Angus McBride
Part of the Elite series
Paperback / softback
Description
Perhaps the greatest warriors in history, the Samurai were a product of a social system totally geared to war.
The Samurai became expert in fighting both on horseback and on the ground.
Their way of life was dictated by the code of Bushido or 'way of the warrior' and clad in their magnificent, multi-coloured armour they were perfectly suited to the violent clan and dynastic warfare that dominated medieval Japan as the most powerful families vied for supremacy.
In this title Anthony J Bryant presents a fascinating overview of these truly élite warriors.
