Unlike Dersin's other book in this series about Imperial China, Samurai and Shoguns delves into the daily lives of its characters. You learn about the fashions of the people, as well as the women who helped shape the empire of Japan. You learn about how the merchant class organized themselves into guilds alongside learning about historic battles. Overall, Dersin does a much better job here of painting a complete picture of 16th-17th century Japanese society, to the point where users can imagine it for themselves.
If you're interested in this period of Japanese history, I highly recommend both the book and the docu-series. Together, the two paint a really compelling and complex picture of medieval Japan that is truly incomparable. ( )
