Sample Book Insights:
#1 The school named Mubyōshi Ryū is a samurai warfare school from the Kaga domain around the time of the fourth lord of Kaga, Maeda Tsunanori. The school focuses on personal protection rather than battlefield warfare, and its teachings are now no longer a part of the living tradition.
#2 Antony is a historical researcher and author who has focused on the history of the Japanese shinobi. He has translated and published multiple shinobi and samurai manuals, including The Book of Ninja, The Book of Samurai, Iga and Koka Ninja Skills, and The Secret Traditions of the Shinobi.
#3 Replica weapons and tools are created by machine builder and blacksmith Richard Couck. He enjoys and is constantly on the lookout for new and unusual tools or weapons to create, not only to see how they worked but to gain full understanding of how they could or could not be used.
#4 The story of the rediscovery of Mubyōshi Ryū has elements of a fairy tale, and it is true. I had heard the name Muhyōshi Ryū as a branch of Shinjin Ryū from the Shinobi Hiten catalog, but no more than its name and a possible connection to the shinobi was understood.
