About this book The fierce loyalty & self-sacrificing attitude of the Samurai have made them both a legend & a cult. Yet although their military prowess & skills in the martial arts have been studied exhaustively, an understanding of their belief system still eludes many. This original & exciting work examines the spiritual world of the samurai, from their attachment to Japan's mainstream religions of Shinto & Buddhism, to their involvement in Confucianism, Christianity & Folk Religion. Samurai expert Stephen Turnbull examines important topics such as Zen & the martial arts, modern militarism, the cult of the sword, revenge & suicide, hara kiri & the kamikaze pilots
- the suicide bombers of their day. He also looks at the fascinating issue of Japanese religious terrorism, as well as the growing cult status of the Samurai both in Japan & in the West. Author: Stephen Turnbull ISBN: 9781846030215

The Battle of Trafalgar, 21 October 1805, remains one of the defining moments in naval history. The decisive nature of the engagement, the death of Nelson & the outpouring of national grief in the aftermath have inspired a wealth of literature on the battle & many narratives have retold this famous action. However, until now no work has attempted to provide an in-depth history of each of the British, French & Spanish vessels that were at the engagement. Dividing the fleets into the relevant classes by their rating, this keystone work then proceeds to provide a service history of each individual vessel, including specifications tables, list of commanders, casualty lists & refit histories. Each class of vessel is illustrated by original plans drawn specially by the author alongside contemporary & modern images of the ships. Author: Peter Goodwin 256 pages 295 x 248mm Hardback Vital contextual information is included, on design & construction, styles, relative merits between the British & Combined fleets, trends & developments in armament & fighting techniques, & a comparison of the pound-for-pound effectiveness of the rival fleets. This book is a complete, standard-setting guide to the essence of the greatest naval battle, the ships at Trafalgar. Publisher: Conway Maritime Press ...
