The author analyses how the samurai were for centuries Japan's ruling class and how their image endures after their abolition in 1868. The journey spans more than a thousand years, from their origins to their decline after the Meiji restoration, and examines the bushidô code and its influence on literature, film and economics.
Part of the El Libro de Bolsillo collection, History series. Translated by María del Carmen Arias Rodríguez.
