Short Book Summary:'When you attain the Way of strategy, there will not be one thing you cannot see.'
- Miyamoto Musashi, Book of Five Rings
Shortly before his death in 1645, the undefeated swordsman Miyamoto Musashi retreated to a cave to live as a hermit. There he wrote five scrolls describing the "true principles" required for victory in the martial arts and on the battlefield. Instead of relying on religion or theory, Musashi based his writings on his own experience, observation, and reason.
Another Middle-school favourite of mine. Musashi was one of my many historic heroes. I've never read the manga 'Vagabond', though I hear it is about him (and amazing). I have to get around to that one day.
Musashi was one of the world's greatest badasses. Who knows if some of his stories were simply embellished at the time; but where is the fun in questioning them? Besides, he wouldn't be able to write of his own detailed accounts if he wasn't a real master of swordsmanship
