Stray Dogs & Lone Wolves: The Samurai Film Handbook
I just found out about Stray Dogs & Lone Wolves: The Samurai Film Handbook, which is coming out this summer. A list of the actors, directors and films it covers is found here. I haven't seen many reviews, but what I have read is very positive. I also can't find any information about the author, Patrick Galloway. However, the content looks very well thought out and complete, reviewing great samurai movies like Chushingura, Gate of Hell, the Lone Wolf and Cub series, Zatoichi, Musashi Miyamoto, Sanjuro, Seven Samurai, and even the recent Twilight Samurai. I ordered one today.

Since you're so into Samurai, have you read 'Way of Warrior Trader: The Financial Risk-Taker's Guide to Samurai Courage, Confidence and Discipline' ? I'm working through it now. It's an interesting book.

I haven't read it, but I will check it out. It sounds good. Thanks, Mike.
Have you seen any of these samurai movies? I think they would be a good supplement to your book.

I ordered the book just now. I have so many books to read now and so little time...*sigh*

I saw Seven Samurai a few years ago. Maybe I'll chek out one of the others on the list.
I know what you mean about the unread books. I have a stack of about 50!
