I swear I heard of this book, and the Satsuma rebellion before I saw the movie...Also, I would like to know if anyone has read it. When I post to this forum please note that I haven't read a lot of history books on these subjects and so am looking to deepen my knowledge on these things. I have read a few textbook treatments of this particular thing, but no sort of biography about Saigo. I have read most of the webpages on him posted in the last samurai forum. Thanks for your help.
The Last Samurai--Life and Battles of Saigo Takamori ...Mark Ravira
ps, normally I would just buy these and read them myself but I'm trying to conserve and spend a bit more carefully since I've been giving Koryu.com and Prof. Friday my money for their books first. So I appreciate the educated referrels from e-budo. I trust your opinions more than the book-jackets'.
