Reviews
"Vaporis has accomplished what no scholar has before: a thorough, reliable encyclopedia of samurai culture and history useful for students, scholars, and casual readers alike. A classic that won't be surpassed anytime soon." -- Professor Michael Wert, Marquette University, "Nearly 30 pages of primary source documents offer excerpts or full text...An extensive index and selected bibliography aid ease of use and further study, and illustrations and portraits bring the text to life....Highly recommended. General readers; lower-division undergraduates through faculty." -- L.K. Miller, formerly, Western Kentucky University Libraries, "Constantine Nomikos Vaporis has written an interesting collection of short encyclopedia-style essays about samurai in Edo period Japan for general readers." -- World History Encyclopedia, "The Samurai played a leading role in Japanese society for centuries, and this is the first encyclopedia to showcase the fascinating history and culture of these enigmatic warriors." -- University of Maryland newsletter, "This reference work by a cutting-edge academic is exceptional. As a single-authored encyclopedia with entries of uniform quality and lots of rare photographs, it fills a glaring educational need among students and general readers. Vaporis vividly conveys what life was like for samurai in the period 1568 to 1871. His breadth, judiciousness, and reliability of factual coverage, as well as his concise, enjoyable style, are superb for popularizing without watering down the material in a way that specialists will find enlightening." -- Bob Tadashi Wakabayashi, Emeritus Professor of History, York University, "Reference materials on the elite Japanese warriors with a legendary code of individual honor and pride are few and far between.... This comprehensive collection of information on the history of the Samurai will be a welcome addition to academic and public libraries." -- Maren Ostergard, Booklist, "...an excellent reference book that tries to separate the mythology of the samurai from the historical samurai." -- San Francisco Book Review, "Vaporis has assembled an enormous amount of information---much of it heretofore unavailable in English--and presented it in an engaging and accessible format... I recommend it enthusiastically."-- Karl Friday (Saitama University) review in Monumenta Nipponica
