If you like anything that has to do with samurai and/or japan this is a great book to have, When I first read the first 20 pages I seen things in life differently,This is a 2 in 1 book,Miyamoto Musashi was a samurai that was undefeated and the best swords man that has ever lived, Surpassing every and any samurai's and swordmans, Since back in the years that he lived only samurai were allowed to carry these wonderful swords, It was a great honor to have these and carry them on you, The ultimate goal with them is to be the best there is, Musashi was called out to a fight with another samurai, Now this other man was all about honor and on time and this Musashi used this against him, Musashi was a MASTER strategist and showed up 3 hours late on purpose to make the make angry and not thinking clearly, On his way there by boat he carved a boat oar into a sword, This other man knew everyone used the same length sword, So to win he hand a sword that was longer then others, This way when the other would strike they would miss him but he would still be able to kill them, And Musashi knew about this and to make this other man even more mad he showed up with a wooden sword, This did work for Musashi, Musashai kept his distance and waited for the right time to strike hitting the man on the head, Musashai knew he was not dead n walked just outside of the mans sword range and told him to leave and not to continue to fight as Musashai tried to walk away the man went to strike Musashai and Musashai knew he would do this and moved out of the way while strikeing the man in the chest so hard it killed the man, This I believe was the last time he killed anyone, He wrote this book back in 1645 And everyone till this day use this book how tactics in war and life, Getting and reading this will change the way you see things in life, This book is good in war and in everyday life, This is a MUST have book for anyone, This book in my eyes has nothing to dislike in it,Read full review

Classic. The ideas relate to our everday life. A different take on "the art of war". Not just for martial artists and people into Japanese history. The ideas and things discussed are useful to anyone who reads this book. Just about anyone could take something useful away from this book.
