### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    The finest translation of Musashi.
  

*by A***Y on Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2016*

This translation is a thing of beauty.Musashi's text is not easy at the best of times, but it is always rewarding. Kenji Tokitsu, the translator, combines being an expert in historical Japan and the antique Japanese language with a remarkable grasp of English ... and he's a serious martial artist, as well.It shows.When you read this, please read all of Tokistsu's footnotes and appendices. They clarify, give extraordinary perspective to, and showcase the power and insight of 'the swordsman's bible'.

*by O***I on Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2018*

The translator takes great pains to explain his approach to the original work, since there are so many other versions of this text. He spends substantial time expounding on his word choices, how they're reflective of the original 'context' but also take into account the speech & vernacular of current times. Truth be told, some further adjustments could be made utilizing more precise English vocabulary.All that said, the majority of the work is well presented and representative of the (original) author's views. There is both knowledge and wisdom contained in the work, much of it befitting Musashi's reputation, capabilities and personality. Other areas where 'extra' text from different copies and different works of his with similar (albeit earlier and/or less refined in focus) information, can become tedious to follow due to the author's choice of organizational format. The chosen format divides & essentially delivers it like it were being cataloged... not a format 'fit-for-consumption'.I still readily recommend this version.

*by C***. on Reviewed in the United States on September 18, 2014*

Great book covering several writings of one of Japan's most famous swordsmen.  I've read the earlier version sold originally as a "business" book, but this one provides the reader with in-depth background information to better understand Musashi's writings, which makes it easier to apply his philosophies to your own life philosophies (if that is what you are seeking).
