First edition hardcover of Tsununeyoshi Matsuno’s Wives of the Samurai, a concise 66-page study tracking the women beside feudal warriors. Dust jacket shows water marks and shelf rub yet the book inside remains clean, tight, and unread, perfect for collectors of Japanese antiquarian nonfiction.

Matsuno sketches court rituals, marriage politics, and quiet resistance shaping seventeenth-century castle towns. Young adults curious about samurai culture and adults tracing gender history will find the volume approachable without academic jargon.

This 1989 collectible fits small shelves and complements Edo-period memoirs. Smoke-free home preservation keeps pages fresh, inviting future owners to trace marginalia or gift an unusual slice of warrior household life.
