Title: "Shogun" hero William Blackthorne based on William Adams
Review: Giles Milton's biography of the first Englishman in the Japans is a facinating, compellling and exciting account of the exploits of William Adams, sea captain, adventurer, linguist and participant in the politics of Tokugawa era Japan. Amazing in its detal and readable, this book will keep a history-minded reader interested to the last page. William Adams is the historical figure upen whom James Clavell based his heroic character John Blackthorne, in the epic novel "Shogun."
