Sanpei Shirato: The Legend of Kamui: Volume Five, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

The greatest socialist sword and samurai manga of all-time gets the deluxe treatment it deserves

Edo burns to the ground sending the Japanese economy into turmoil. The gap between the land owners and the lower classes widens but crafty farmer Shosuke has some ideas. He works diligently to unite the outcasts and farmers knowing full well that the only ones benefitting from their ongoing conflicts are the wealthy. Shosuke, with the help of an eager community, reclaims land, fixes irrigation and fights to make a more prosperous way of life for everyone.

In this lauded series, considered the greatest comics epic in manga history, we see Shirato Sanpei reach his full potential as he combines his love of history with real human socialist politics. The Legend of Kamui is the great historical comic that influenced all that came after.
