Appendices; 1. Dai Nihon Teikoku Kata 2. Notes on the Japanese Sword 3. Notes on the Japanese Armour 4. Tamashigiri 5. Seppuku. Glossary. Small bookseller's sticker inside front flap of dustjacket which has light creasing, chips to edges. The scope of the book focuses on the concerns of the samurai; his sword, his armour, seppuku - which, except to an historian or collector, are virtually unknown outside Japan.
