Introduction The role of the samurai commander Arms and armour The commander in battle The environment of the commander Great commanders
Synopsis
Osprey's examination of Samurai commanders during the Gempei Wars (1180-1185), the Onin War (1467-1477), and the early Sengoku period. The samurai were the military elite of medieval and early modern Japan, and the men who led them were hailed as the very greatest, most heroic and most honourable of all samurai warriors. This first of two books examines the lives, equipment, battles and wider roles of the samurai commanders between 940 and 1576, the period from the emergence of the samurai to the triumph of Oda Nobunaga, who set Japan on the road to reunification. The styles of armour and weaponry of the samurai changed considerably during this time and this book visually recreates some of the most famous samurai commanders, such as Taira Masaka (c. 903-940), Minamoto Yorimasa (1106-1180), and Takeda Shingen (1521-1573).

    Item arrived well packed and in good condition, alas it was over 1 month to get it, and seller offered no explanation. Item perfectly described and in good order, but extremely slow service.

    Longest shipping time I've ever experienced. Bought 8/11, arrived 9/18. Responded to emails quickly and item arrived brand new as described. Didn't note the 20 day shipping window until after purchased, took even longer than that.

    Excellent item and good seller communication. Shipping time was good once it shipped, but it was a little bit of a wait before that happened. For the price I paid, the wait was worth it because it was everything expressed in the listing.
