Pamela S. Turner

"This epic tale of warriors and bravery, rebellion and revenge, reads like a novel, but this is the true story of the greatest samurai in Japanese history"--

The Epic Life of Minamoto Yoshitsune

Samurai Rising

Katie Day

Perfect to pair this gripping nonfiction account of real samurai with the fantasy historical novel Moribito: Guardian of the Spirit by Nahoko Uehashi featuring a female samurai. Loved the backup material in Turner's book -- maps, glossary, pronunciation guides, timelines, extensive endnotes, etc. On her website, the author also has a PDF discussion guide to download.
