About this listen

The Shogun's Last Samurai Corps tells the thrilling story of the Shinsengumi - the legendary corps of Samurai warriors tasked with keeping order in Kyoto during the final chaotic years of the Tokugawa Shogunate (1600-1868).

This book recounts the fascinating tales of political intrigue, murder, and mayhem surrounding the fearsome Shinsengumi, including:

  • The infamous slaughter at Ikidaya Inn where, after learning of a plan to torch the city, a group of Shinsengumi viciously attacked and killed a group of anti-Tokugawa plotters
  • The bloody assassination of Serizawa Kamo, the Shinsengumi leader, under highly suspicious circumstances
  • The final tumultuous battles of the civil war in which the Shinsengumi fought and died in a series of doomed last stands
