About the Book

Set during the Bakumatsu Period of Japan (The Last Days of the Tokugawa Shogunate). Hatamoto takes us into the world of the foreign born men who became direct Vassals of the 15th and final Shogun during the opening salvos of the Boshin War. For former American Southerner John Paul Ledoux, he will be given the name Gingiro Asakage and the mantle of the two swords of the Samurai and if necessary, he will fight for it. Faced with the wrath of the Asakage Clan's most senior swordsman, Sir Matsunaga, and an uncertain future, he will do everything to protect those he has sworn to defend.
About the Author: American Mishima is the work of author Louis Edward Rosas, the son of Mexican immigrants whose father, Luis Sr., served in the U.S. Army in the Central Highlands of Vietnam. Louis Rosas, in his youth, grew up on glamorized war films and military aviation in the sleepy seaside plains of Oxnard California. It was there he watched waves of replica Japanese warplanes fly overhead as they filmed WWII dramas including The Black Sheep Squadron out of the nearby Oxnard Airport. Instilled with an early fascination of the Second World War during the Post Vietnam Era, it was his exposure to Akira Kurosawa's Samurai epic Ran (Toho, 1985) that ultimately changed his views on war while creating a lasting impression of Japanese culture and history. Further inspired by the works of famed Japanese author and playwright Yukio Mishima, Rosas would go on to become immersed in the study of Japanese language, history, and swordsmanship which led him to the practice of Koyasan Shingon Buddhism and Shinto. Rosas has also trained in Shinkendo, the ideal practice of the Samurai Code of Bushido in the modern world under its founder in Little Tokyo, Los Angeles which helped shape the creative force that is American Mishima.
