The Lone Samurai

The Lone Samurai

The Lone Samurai (ISBN 4-7700-2942-X) is a biography of the Japanese swordsman Miyamoto Musashi. It is written by William Scott Wilson, published by Kodansha International, and was first printed in 2004. It is possibly the first reliable reference on Musashi, since most of the previously known information is drawn from legends or fictional accounts.
