Kawanakajima 155364 by Stephen Turnbull

This manual illustrates the development of samurai armies during the mid-16th century, which witnessed the introduction of firearms. Focusing on the Kawanakajima campaigns of 1553-1564, it relates the struggle between two of mediaeval Japan's greatest warlords, Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin.

Stephen Turnbull is the world's leading English language authority on medieval Japan and samurai warfare. He has travelled extensively in the Far East, particularly in Japan and Korea and is the author of numerous titles, including Men-at-Arms 86: ‘Samurai Armies 1550-1615’, and Campaign 69: ‘Nagashino 1575’.

Wayne Reynolds was born in Leeds, UK, and attended art college in Middlesborough. He has had a life-long passion for illustration, and since 1991 has worked as a professional artist. Wayne has provided illustrations and source material for many gaming companies, creating figures, landscapes and interiors, as well as providing core characterisation. He is perhaps best known though for his work on titles such as '2000AD', 'Slaine', and 'Judge Dredd'. Wayne is also a keen modeller and historical re-enactor.
