Pale peach endpapers. Description: Profusely illustrations, with both color and black and white photographs, historic art, and with specially commissioned illustrations by James Field. The publisher's blurb reads: ''The samurai were the military elite of old Japan, and the daimyo were the elite of the samurai. This documents and describes the life of this group in rich detail. These were the samurai who succeed first as warriors and went t on to found petty kingdoms of their own, defended with armies of samurai who owed allegiance to them alone. From these original warlords grew great dynasties of daimyo, who enjoyed a symbiotic existence with the central government of the Shogun until all were swept away in the upheaval of the 1850s, which gave birth to modern Japan.''
