Announcement: Legends and Stories 2

[Markus]

Dear Members, I want to inform you that part 2 of my "Legends and

Stories around the Japanese Sword" is out now. Once more I try to bring

the reader closer to the Japanese sword and dig deeper into the matter by

the means of legends, stories and anecdotes about famous swords and their

swordsmiths. Like in the first volume, I introduce several famous meito or

meibutsu, for example the Kogarasu-maru, Yoshimoto-Samonji, Takemata-

Kanemitsu, Kuronbogiri-Kagehide, Tsurumaru-Kuninaga and many more.

And the stories deal among other things with the greatest swordsmiths

in Japanese history like Masamune, Muramasa, Samonji, Kiyomaro and

Kotetsu, to name only a few.

 

It can be ordered via Lulu.com but will appear in some weeks on amazon too:
