The Revenge Of The 47 Ronin Edo 1703 Book Content Preview: When Lord Kira brought about the death of Lord
Asano, he made Asano's loyal samurai into ronin - masterless warriors. These men secretly plotted their revenge
and one snowy winter's night, launched an ambitious raid against their enemy's mansion in Edo. What ensued was
the fiercest sword battle to have been seen in Japan for over a century. The gates were stormed, Lord Kira was
captured and executed, and his washed head placed on Lord Asano's tomb. This title details the background,
planning, and execution of this incredible raid, looking at the equipment used by the ronin, the tactics they

employed in storming the building, and the dramatic events that followed, as the surviving ronin committed mass
suicide - a final act of loyalty and defiance that sealed their legend.
