Beschreibung
When Lord Kira brought about the death of Lord Asano, he made Asano's loyal samurai into ronin - masterless warriors. These men secretly plotted their revenge and one snowy winter's night, launched an ambitious raid against their enemy's mansion in Edo. What ensued was the fiercest sword battle to have been seen in Japan for over a century. The gates were stormed, Lord Kira was captured and executed, and his washed head placed on Lord Asano's tomb. This title details the background, planning, and execution of this incredible raid, looking at the equipment used by the ronin, the tactics they employed in storming the building, and the dramatic events that followed, as the surviving ronin committed mass suicide - a final act of loyalty and defiance that sealed their legend.

Zusammenfassung
This book is written by one of the world's leading experts on the samurai and their culture. Using information gleaned from decades of research, photographs and illustrations from his own photo library, Stephen Turnbull has created yet another absorbing and spectacularly illustrated book for Osprey. As this raid took place during a period of relative peace in Japan, it also allows the opportunity to investigate the equipment, weapons, and tactics of the samurai during a different period of history.
