Title: 図説・戦国武将118―決定版
Title: 118 Sengoku Daimyou (?)
Author:
Date:
Publisher: Gakken
ISBN4-05-602-415-4
www.amazon.co.jp/exec/obidos/ASIN/4056024154/250-9013495-2996262
This Gakken book is not as valuable to those who do not read Japanese as the Sengoku Tosei Gusoku book. Yet I still enjoy having it in my collection. Each of the 118 warlords has a page or more devoted to him with a portrait, a banner, and some personal items, often of a military nature, shown. In these personal references there are pictures of armours and war fans, camp stools and castles.
The portraits chosen are usually of good enough quality to get a good sense of fabric weight, color, and pattern. You also get to see a wide variety of mustache, beard, and side burn styles.
I like this book but can only recommend it with caution for non-Japanese readers.
