Synopsis
In 1614, Osaka Castle was Japan's greatest fortification, measuring approximately 2 miles in length with double circuits of walls, 100 feet high. It was guarded by 100,000 samurai, loyal to their master: the head of the Toyotomi clan, Toyotomi Hideyori. The castle was seemingly impenetrable, however the ruling shogun of the age, Tokugawa Ieyasu, was determined to destroy this one last threat to his position as Japan's ultimate ruler. This book explores the complex background of this bitter struggle, as well as the battle experiences of the opposing forces, in a compelling exploration of the conflict that led to the eventual triumph of one dynasty over another., Osprey's exploration of the complex background of the Siege of Osaka (1614-1615), as well as of the battle experiences of the opposing forces, in a compelling exploration of the conflict that led to the eventual triumph of one dynasty over another.

    Fast shipping. All books are as described in their listings. They were wrapped snugly in bubble wrap, inside of a fully enclosed cardboard sleeve, which was in turn placed inside of a water resistant media mailer bag. A thoughtful packing job to protect the books and ensure their safe arrival. I recommend this seller to anyone who is looking for history oriented books. Thanks!!

    Fast and free shipping. Exceptional item price. Great packaging. The hardcover book was enclosed in a cardboard book mailer and shipped in a sealed plastic mailing bag. The book is in "like new" condition, as described, and even includes the original promo sheets! I'm very happy with this purchase. Thank you!
