> This is probably terribly old news to most of you. However, for those of you
who didn't know, the fiction novel by James Clavell 'Shogun' is based on actual
history and characters. (this was my introduction into the world of the
samurai, actually) The main characters are all based on Tokugawa, Ieyasu,
Nobunaga, and the actual first Dutch ship to land in the Japans in 1598.

> I hope I don't sound hopelessly out of touch with this information, but if
you would like to immerse yourself in the life that exsisted for the samurai
during this time, you might want to check this book out. Also the mini-series
(if you go to your local video store) although the book is better. And if you
do please feel free to write me about it.
