Softcover. Condition: New. Reissue. Product Description"A readable, compassionate account of an extraordinary life. -The Washington PostThe remarkable life of historys first foreign-born samurai, and his astonishing journey from Northeast Africa to the heights of Japanese society.Warrior. Samurai. Legend.When Yasuke arrived in Japan in the late 1500s, he had already traversed much of the known world. Kidnapped as a child in Northeast Africa, he served as a bodyguard to the head of the Jesuits in Asia, traveling to India and China, and eventually arriving in Japan, where everything would change.Most Japanese people had never seen an African man before. Some believed he was a god. Others saw him as the black-skinned Buddha.Among those drawn to him was Lord Nobunaga, head of the most powerful clan in Japan, who made Yasuke a samurai in his court. Soon, Yasuke was learning the traditions of martial arts and ascending the upper echelons of Japanese society, where he would live on to become a legend for the centuries to come.ReviewWith fast-paced, action-packed writing, Lockley and Girard offer a new and important biography and an incredibly moving study of medieval Japan and solid perspective on its unification. Highly recommended. -Library Journal (starred review)This fact-checked portrait of an often-mythologized warrior with manga and anime variations is an exciting and illuminating tale of action and intrigue. Fans of manga and anime will enjoy reading this excellent work of Japanese history. -Booklist (starred review)A readable, compassionate account of an extraordinary life. -The Washington PostEminently readable. The solid scholarship on and imaginative treatment of Yasukes life make this both a worthwhile and entertaining work. -Publishers WeeklyA rich portrait of a brutal age. -Kirkus ReviewsA gripping tale of politics, war and religion that reads like an adventure story. -Dave Rear, author of A Less Boring History of the WorldThe time has come for history to embrace the amazing story of Yasuke. In African Samurai words flex their muscles and pay tribute to a man of physical strength and combat skills. The writing is seductive and the reader sees the world through Yasukes eyes. There is much to learn about the wonder of his life, and his story is a sharp blade cutting into invisibility. -E. Ethelbert MillerThis book is not only the best account in English of Yasuke, the famous African samurai. It's also a delightful introduction to the vibrant and multicultural world of Asian maritime history. Written novelistically, with a light scholarly touch. Exciting and informative! -Tonio Andrade, author of The Gunpowder AgeRarely do I read a book that challenges my worldview of history, but African Samurai certainly alters my understanding of African and Japanese history. African Samurai gripped me from the opening sentence -- a unique story of a unique man, and yet someone with whom we can all identify. -Jack Weatherford, author of Genghis Khan and the Making of the Modern WorldAfrican Samurai sounds like a novel, a freaking amazing novel. But Yasuke is real, and Lockley and Girard bring him and his world to life with incredible research and style. Yasuke may have lived in the 1500s, but he is a hero for our modern world. Seriouslywhen is the movie? -Bret Witter, #1 New York Times bestselling co-author of The Monuments Men.
