The Book of Five Rings: The Manga (manga)

This manga version of Japanese classic The Book of Five Rings, the iconic book of confrontation and victory by the famed 17th-century duelist and undefeated samurai Miyamoto Musashi, reinvigorates the classic, making it more accessible and appealing to a wide audience.

With atmospheric manga art by Chie Kutsuwada (Hagakure, Romeo and Juliet, etc) and a fluid script adaptation by Sean Michael Wilson (AX:alternative manga, A Christmas Carol, etc) the manga version works both as an engaging visual guide to Japanese swordsmanship and strategy, and as a view into Musashi's world.

A fascinating book for manga fans, martial art fans and anyone who wants to apply the timeless principles of this text to their lives.
