‘… They come like Wind, they go like Lightning’. (Sun Tzu, ‘The Art of War’)In medieval Japan there were a few dozen families of Iga and Koga provinces specializing in Ninjutsu. Most of them belonged to the category of ‘goshi’ — inferior level of the samurai class with its own hereditary estates. In Koga goshi clans were 53. In Iga dominated three Ninja clans — Hattori, Momoti and Fudzhibayashi.They were not only cold-blooded assassins and spies as well as trying to present them some authors. Not accidental their art was preserved more than 1, 300 years. The key to this art is their device: ‘Patience above all else’.This visual history of the ninja introduces us to their ideology, lifestyle, training and weapons. It is interesting for both children and adults.
