Arguably the greatest military commander in the history of the samurai, Toyotomi Hideyoshi rose from the ranks of the peasantry to rule over all Japan. A student of the great unifier Oda Nobunaga, Hideyoshi would later avenge the murder of his master at the battle of Yamazaki. After consolidating his position, Hideyoshi went on the offensive, conquering the southern island of Kyushu in 1587 and defeating the Hojo in 1590. By 1591, he had accomplished the reunification of Japan. This book looks at the complete story of Hideyoshi's military accomplishments, from his days as a tactical leader to his domination of the Japanese nation.

I would advise Osprey to either enlarge the page number to 98 (of the Campaign titles) or to rigorously refer to other Osprey titles, in this case unloading much of the basic history to the essential history also written by Turnbull, thus liberating space for a true assessment of Hideyoshi. Given the few titles about Hideyoshi that exist in English, this is still a welcome addition but not a heads-up to the Command series. While I find the commissioned paintings a bit too crude in style, the photography and illustrations are often stunning. Recommended to the sengoku jidai veteran seeking additional material. A novice might better start with one of Turnbull's general books. ( )
