Re: Musashi

by amphipolis@yahoo.com

I'm very very glad to hear that my site: 'Musashi, the man behind the
legend' has a success.
What inspired me in order to make a huge research on Musashi was Kinnosuke
Yorozuya's film series: 'The man of five rings'. An amazing film about
Musashi's life after his contest with Kojiro. Yorozuya as Musashi is superb
and later I heard that he was a master of kenjutsu (6th dan).

For long time now, I'm trying hard to find more infos about Yorozuya.
However, it is impossible so far. It is said that Japanese 'hide' many
evidence because they want to keep them only for... them. I dunno if this is
true. But I know that there are for sure many files which have been left
without english translation...

Please, if you know more about Yorozuya, feel free to let me know.

Thanks for your interest on Musashi's site.

Soon, I'll publish a book on Musashi based on this site.

regards,
Amphipolis

Yoshikawas's novel is a great story but has nothing to do with the true
story of Musashi.
Go to:
http://www.crosswinds.net/~musashi1584/

There is a bios of Musashi.
