The 47th Ronin

The 47th Ronin is a unique collection of ancient stories gathered from the annals of time and spoken from the lips of samurai warrior and leader of the Ronin, Tadashi Tonegawa. This exciting collection follows a Japanese samurai’s ancestors through years of strife, war and political backstabbing. Through Tadashi’s recollections, musings and orations, you become mesmerized by exciting tales of valor, which have been handed down from generation to generation.
Tadashi, last of his bloodline of great samurai warriors, has the responsibility and privilege to possess and care for the family heirloom, a Hanzumon sword. Five generations earlier this weapon was crafted from the finest mountain ore, folded and refolded thousands of times. Etched with battle scars of great fights and feats of heroism, these blemishes are evident on the blade that helped shape the course of history.
These stories are relayed to you exactly the way the fights and battles occurred. Each conflict, as seen through the eyes of the samurai warrior, is so realistic and intense you will feel you are in the midst of each battle. It was the winter of 1703 . . .
