This graphic novel version of <i>The Book of Five Rings</i>, 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, <i>The Book of Five Rings</i> comes alive both as a guide to swordsmanship and strategy, and as a view into Musashi’s world.
