Sekigahara, 1600, Anthony J. Bryant

The Final Struggle for Power (Osprey Campaign S.)

A fascinating study of one of the most important battles in Japanese history, this 96-page book is an easy read and a great introduction to Japanese history. It is packed full of black and white photos, illustrations and stunning colour plates. Particularly impressive are the colour maps and the 3-D battlefield maps, an osprey trademark are used to here to excellent effect. For the war gamer and modeller there are some excellent pictures of the troops and the generals and a section on war-gaming the campaign. Highly recommended one of Ospreys best.
