$39.95 By the early seventeenth century the Tokugawa shogunate had achieved supremacy over nearly all its oppo nents throughout the islands of Japan. Meanwhile, the great Ming dynasty of China, which came to power in
1368,
was on its last legs.
Corruption was rampant, extravagant expenditures emptied state coffers, while rural poverty and banditry were destroying the fabric of life in North China. Beyond the Great Wall, the nomadic Jurchens were beginning to cause the Ming government trou ble. Yet the very idea that these "bar barians" might someday invade and conquer China scarcely crossed the mind of any but a thoughtful few. Across this stage of international conflict and intrigue wanders a com pletely unlikely couple, the Jurchen princess Abiya, shipwrecked on the island of Hirado, and the minor samurai Katsura Shosuke, tasked with returning her to her North China homeland. Neither has any inkling that they will soon become caught up in events that will shape the history of East Asia, and will bear witness to the birth of two remarkable and enduring regimes. The Manchus will rule over China until the imperial system is over thrown in
1911,
while the Togukawa
shoguns hold sway over Japan until the Meiji restoration of
1868.
Shiba Ryotaro (1923-1996), studied Mongolian at the Osaka School of Foreign Languages and began his career as a journalist. A prolific and popular writer of historical fiction, his many monumental works are widely read, and have spawned lengthy dramatizations on Japanese
TV. This is the fourth of the author's major works to be translated into English, after ThP Last Shogun:
The Life of Tokugawa Yoshinobu, Drunk as a Lord: Samurai Stories, and Kukai the Universal: Scenes from his

The mighty cultural and military forces that clashed in North China in the early seventeenth century irrevocably altered the history of East Asia. The Tatar Whirlwind tells the
tale of the fall of the Great Ming, as seen through the eyes of a wandering samurai and the Jurchen princess he is charged with return ing to her homeland. This sprawling novel of colorful characters and epic events was penned by Japan's most popular writer of historical fiction and is rendered in a masterful and accu rate translation by a noted scholar of East Asian history.
