Book excerpt: Acclaimed storyteller and manga artist Ryuto Kanzaki makes her English-language debut with Samurai Confidential, a sweeping pictorial that showcases the private, often complex lives of Japan's most famous samurai warriors. More that just a lavish picture book, though, Samurai Confidential is rich with nuggets of information not normally found in mainstream history books. The book delves into the backgrounds of Japan's most renowned warriors, many of whom served as scholars, musicians, painters and poets when they were not busy on the battlefield. From the Tokugawa shogunate to the final days of Edo, from Kenshin to Ieyasu to Musashi, Samurai Confidential has all of its bushi bases covered.
