Description

A graphic novel retelling of the classic manifesto on swordsmanship, strategy, and winning by the legendary samurai Miyamoto Musashi. A graphic novel retelling of the classic martial arts manifesto on swordsmanship, strategy, and winning-by the legendary samurai Miyamoto Musashi This graphic novel version of The Book of Five Rings, the iconic book of confrontation and victory by the famed seventeenth-century duelist and undefeated samurai Miyamoto Musashi, illuminates this brilliant manifesto, which has long inspired martial artists and anyone interested in cultivating a strategic mind. With evocative drawings and a distilled but faithful text adapted by acclaimed manga writer Sean Michael Wilson, The Book of Five Rings comes alive both as a guide to swordsmanship and strategy, and as a view into Musashi's world.
