From when the Empress Jingo-kogo led an invasion of Korea while pregnant with the future Emperor Ojin, tales of female Japanese warriors have emerged from Japan's rich history. Using material that has never been translated into English before, this book presents the story of Japan's female warriors for the first time, revealing the role of the women of the samurai class in all their many manifestations, investigating their weapons, equipment, roles, training and belief systems. Crucially, as well as describing the women who were warriors in their own right, like Hauri Tsuruhime and the women of Aizu, this book also looks at occasions when women became the power behind the throne, ruling and warring through the men around them.

That of Samurai women is a captivating world where honor, courage, and strength know no gender boundaries. In this riveting exploration of Japan's rich history we delve deep into the lives of the remarkable women who defied societal norms and embraced the way of the warrior. For centuries, the Samurai have been revered as iconic symbols of bravery and loyalty, their tales celebrated in countless legends. Yet amidst the tales of male warriors, the stories of Samurai women have remained shrouded in mystery and obscurity—until now. In Samurai Women we embark on a thrilling journey to uncover the hidden narratives of these extraordinary women. From the early feudal era to the height of the samurai culture, we witness their remarkable feats of valor, their unwavering dedication to their clans, and their unyielding spirit in the face of adversity. You will meet legendary figures such as Tomoe Gozen, the renowned female warrior of the twelfth century who fearlessly led her troops into battle, striking fear into the hearts of her enemies. You will discover the awe-inspiring tale of Nakano Takeko, a skilled swordswoman who fought with unmatched precision and courage during the tumultuous Boshin War. But the stories don't end there. Samurai Women goes beyond the battlefield, delving into the intricate web of personal and political relationships that shaped the lives of these remarkable women. We witness their struggles for recognition in a male-dominated society, their devotion to their families and duties, and the sacrifices they made for honor and duty. This book transports readers to feudal Japan, where honor and duty were the guiding principles of life. Through the lens of these remarkable women, we gain a deeper understanding of the broader social and cultural fabric of samurai society. Their stories challenge conventional notions of gender roles, illuminating the indomitable spirit and resilience that characterized the samurai way of life. Samurai Women is a tribute to these exceptional warriors, an ode to their unwavering spirit, and an invitation to discover the powerful stories that history has overlooked. Immerse yourself in the world of the Samurai, where honor knows no gender. Unveil the secrets of the past, embrace the strength and courage of Samurai women, and witness their indelible mark on history.
