Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 19
The idea of the sword-wielding samurai, beholden to a strict ethical code and trained in deadly martial arts, dominates popular conceptions of the samurai. As early as the late 17th century, they were heavily featured in literature, art, theater, and even comedy. This book gives listeners access to the real samurai as they lived, fought, and served. Much as they capture the modern imagination, the samurai commanded influence over the politics, arts, philosophy, and religion of their own time, and controlled Japan from the 14th century until their demise in the mid-19th century.

A sobering history
Revisado: 08-17-22
This is a good book for those who would like to know who the samurai were. This history is told in a sobering tone and shows listeners that the samurai could be warriors, pirates, scoundrels, gentlemen and so much more than what you see in popular culture.
