24 Hours in Shogun’s Japan takes you inside one extraordinary day of 1614, told through the lives of 24 individuals, where samurai clash, secrets simmer and the shogun’s grip tightens.
A day in 1614 Japan, told through 24 unforgettable lives, revealing the drama, danger and daily life of this pivotal era of Japanese history.
In 1614, Japan stood at a crossroads. As the Tokugawa shogunate tightened its grip on power, samurai prepared for war, Christians faced persecution and foreign merchants navigated a rapidly shifting political landscape.
In 24 Hours in Shogun’s Japan, Mark Hudson brings this pivotal moment to life through the eyes of 24 individuals – nobles and farmers, merchants and monks, pirates and poets – each living through one dramatic hour of a single day. From the streets of Kyoto to the slopes of Mount Fuji, this book offers an immersive portrait of this fascinating era of Japanese history.
