<p>Takeda Nobutora and the Unification of Kai leads the reader into the Sengoku Jidai, one of the most turbulent periods of Japanese history. The second volume in the Saga of the Samurai Series focuses on the life of Takeda Nobutora (1494-1574). Father to Takeda Shingen, Nobutora's life history is often overlooked in the shadow of his son's many accomplishments as a warlord. With eleven painted color plates, and several black and white illustrations and maps, Saga of the Samurai: Takeda Nobutora and the Unification of Kai further brings to life the dramatic saga of the Takeda Family.</p>

History

Military

This book provides an historical view, from the beginnings of underwater travel up to modern underwater craft, of submarine design and construction, both civil and military. The author's vast practical experience in the design and operation of submarines enabled him to present, comprehensively and clearly, the basic knowledge that the engineer, the naval officer, the operator of civil diving craft and the interested laymen need to understand the design and capability of submarines. With complete information on state-of-the-art submarine design, the book describes structural elements, the systems, individual technical procedures connected with submarines, crew installations, safety features and rescue equipment, demonstrating how a cross-section of almost all modern technology enters into submarine construction. About the Author Professor Ulrich Gabler was one of the world's most renowned submarine designers and the founder of Ingenieurkontor Lubeck, which conceived and developed all German post-war submarines.
