The Book of Five Rings: The Strategy of the Samurai (Arcturus Silkbound Classics)

The book is finished in a very nice, silk-like material. This is a high quality print, with beautiful illustrations that bring this must-read to life.

Excellent read! Look into the mind and life of Musashi's lifetime. He is an extraordinary man who followed the sword, fire, water and wind and ends the Book of Void. Great read!

Beautiful rendition of the Japanese classic. I have a copy on my Kindle, but for some books you just have to have a hard bound copy too, and this is the one to have.

Great read

The Book of Five Rings is a classic work on strategy, originally written by Miyamoto Musashi in the 17th century, and this paperback edition makes it easy to carry and revisit time and again. Whether you’re interested in martial arts, business strategy, personal growth, or simply great philosophical insight, this book delivers powerful lessons. Musashi’s clear, concise writing explores the nature of conflict, decision-making, discipline, and mastery, and many of the principles translate beautifully into modern life beyond swordsmanship.

Really, only for martial artists who practice with swords. Not much else to learn in this.

Looks absolutely beautiful, great quality!

All sword fighting an you get 5 books! I just wanted 1. Some of instructikns can be used in todays life. But was disappointed..Thought be morw like his lifes tea hings... bit 5 books for this price i guess is good.!

A book on sword fight - the Japanese style. It also gives advice on combat in general. The principles can perhaps be applied to other situations too. It is a short book. This prevents it from being boring.

good to read

Interesting read. Some things are lost in translation/culture/time. Solid formatting on the Kindle edition

The contents of the book itself is pretty good. However, the cover I hot is not the same as the onei bought and the writing on the spine is warped, as you can see in the second picture linked.

Arrived promptly, great product!
