While this book is a good summary of the unification of Japan, it is a slog to get through. The author includes an excessive amount of names which have no bearing on the overall history other than being the member of a household, etc. Names that recur or conduct important activities, sure. All of the rest, excessive. The analysis is often missing or heavily biased as well. Overall, a good intro but anyone wanting more depth needs to supplement this work with different literature.
