The Shogun's Last Samurai Corps tells the thrilling story of the Shinsengumi-the legendary corps of Samurai warriors tasked with keeping order in Kyoto during the final chaotic years of the Tokugawa Shogunate (1600-1868). This book recounts the fascinating tales of political intrigue, murder, and mayhem surrounding the fearsome Shinsengumi, including: - The infamous slaughter at Ikidaya Inn where, after learning of a plan to torch the city, a group of Shinsengumi viciously attacked and killed a group of anti-Tokugawa plotters - The bloody assassination of Serizawa Kamo, the Shinsengumi leader, under highly suspicious circumstances - The final tumultuous battles of the civil war in which the Shinsengumi fought and died in a series of doomed last stands |
