    Great, easy to read book. Know Nagashino in an afternoon.
  

*by S***A on Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2013*

Without cracking open material written in Japanese it is quite difficult to get a good telling of the battles of 16th century Japan. Western scholars tend to put more emphasis on sweeping social reforms and personalities, and for the most part scholarly books gloss over battlefield specifics. Stephen Turnbull however, brings with his myriad of books, the battles to the front lines. Japanese scholars have spent lifetimes reconstructing battles and sifting through the old folk tales to try and reach the truth (if there ever was one to find), but we are lucky to have an abridged form in English that presents enough information as to feel complete. Without inundating the casual western historian with all that goes into these complicated interpretations, Stephen Turnbull writes a straightforward battle account without unnecessary scholarly debate, or, conversely, generalizations of characters. Turnbull occasionally trips up while arguing the fine details, for example armor types, something which feels a bit like name dropping in contrast to his shortened account, but for the most part this is an easy to follow narrative through one of the most surprising battles in Japanese history.Important information that is included in this book are the sizes of the opposing armies (something that is important in that these numbers can appear exaggerated in historical accounts), major troop movements, motivations for war, reasons for defeat, mindset of those fighting, and stories of individual bravery.This book sets out to be a readable narrative of one of Japan's most important battles of all time, and generally achieves that goal. I denied it five stars only because the number of illustrations became a bit of a distraction. Although visualizing the battle is important for those not familiar with Japanese weapons and fortifications, the 7 large photos of the rather mundane Nagashino battlefield today seems a bit excessive. Also the book is fleshed out with many 2 page spreads that seem a bit much. Still other photos are only loosely connected to what's being written, and appear to just be adding pages to the book. The map illustrations by Howard Gerrard are great! A wonderful view into an important Japanese battle.

    Oda Nobunaga's Great Victory
  

*by E***E on Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2015*

A fine book that covers one of the major early battles in the career of the first of the three Great Unifiers of Japan, Oda Nobunaga. It sets down the groundwork of the campaign and its background, the careers of the commanders on all sides, the sort of weapons and training given the troops, and small personal bits here and there involving the actions of the men involved in the battle.It also has a good if brief section on Torii Sune'emon, the samurai who sneaked out of besieged Nagashino Castle and was able to bring word to Nobunaga and get his promise of help Upon returning Torii was captured by the Takedas (the clan laying siege to Nagashino) and given the chance at high rank and wealth if he betrayed his fellows. What follows is a rather heroic episode, one that as a boy I read reflected 'the truest spirit of self-sacrifice, the real flower of Bushido'. Suffice to say that it's handled very well here.I also like the attention paid to just how Nobunaga used and ordered his arquebus-armed ashigaru to help crush the Takeda, as well as relying on the ground, his knowledge of what the Takeda wanted to do and actually could do, to win the battle. The future of Japanese military history was decided here in a haze of gunfire and by the cunning of Oda Nobunaga.
