A new manga adaptation of Musashi's legendary BOOK OF FIVE RINGS

Miyamoto Musashi is the greatest swordsman who ever lived. He is renowned for his fighting prowess and famous for having never having been defeated. Then he mysteriously disappeared at the relatively young age of 29 to meditate and study.

This book tells the fascinating story of Musashi's return from isolation as he pens his great masterpiece on military tactics, The Book of Five Rings, and begins to train a new generation of Samurai warriors.

The exciting events recounted in this book include:

How and why Musashi wrote The Book of Five Rings, a revolutionary work that has become the most widely-read book on swordsmanship and Samurai strategy ever written
The important lessons he provides including the idea of "no mind", or what we now call "flow", which involves endless practice emptying your mind of thoughts to move intuitively without thinking
Musashi's school for young Samurai warriors where students flock to study with the great master and his final days as he passes the torch to a new generation and solidifies his legacy as Japan's greatest swordsman

Miyamoto Musashi's Book of Five Rings: The Manga Edition is a beautifully-illustrated look at the life and legacy of Japan's greatest warrior in graphic novel form.
