This title details the culture, weapons, armour and training of the
elite samurai warrior class in the fascinating Age of Battles
period (1550-1600). This was a period of vital importance not only
because of the political effects of the chaos but also due to the
changes in warfare that occurred. In 1542 the Portuguese introduced
the matchlock musket into Japanese warfare, and this book traces
the effect that this important innovation had on the samurai. Life
outside the field of battle is also examined, making this an
unmissable book for those interested in this brave warrior caste.
