Book Reviews of Musashi
Book Review: A Great Spiritual Adventure Story
Summary: 5 Stars
One of the most popular books ever written in Japan, it is more than a swashbuckling adventure. Musashi starts out life as a bully trying to prove himself as a samurai. But his quest to perfect the art of swordsmanship turns into a spiritual quest for self-perfection. This is a great book - great entertainment but something more as well. You will learn a lot about the spirit of Japan when you read this book - and perhaps, too, something about yourself. I couldn't recommend Musashi more enthusiastically.
