Beskrivning

Over the centuries, naval relations between Japan and Korea appear to have alternated between peaceful trade and outright hostility.However, this impression can be misleading, as much of what passed for mercantile activity was in fact conducted by Japanese pirate fleets, who pillaged the coasts of Korea and China in a long-lasting tradition that culminated in the greatest pirate raid of all: Hideyoshi's invasion of Korea in 1592. This was the conflict that involved Ming China and almost dragged in Siam.Stephen Turnbull, an expert on medieval Japanese history, explores East Asia's most famous warship: the Korean turtle ship. Developed in response to these pirate attacks, this legendary vessel is described for the first time in full technical detail in this book.
