Very interesting philosophy. Amazingly, most of his principles are still applicable today.

Musashi is not a perfect writer, but I really appreciated the translator's notes and annotations.

This book is interesting for me to rate. I enjoyed reading it but I must admit that I was left wanting. This book very obviously feels dated in a way that I personally did not vibe with. I must admit that I am reading it outside of its original context, and there are a few lessons one could take away from this. I think this was a fun read to tap into a little global history but I would struggle to seriously recommend anyone else read this title.
Thought i would appreciate it more, this time (being in corporate and all).
Same conclusion - The strategy is way to complicated and sometimes very specific to the "Way of the Samurai". I did like the Zen perspective on approaching the use of a (two, if the strategy requires) Katana(s).
It's a cliche, but I prefer Sun Tzu's Art of War.

I bought this as a research for my own writing. I don't usually read this for pleasure. But I love how short this is. I can't help but feel that Miyamoto Musashi is some kind of anime tsundere or a real life Gary Stu who just able to magically defeat anything and anyone in his path and earn utmost respect. Although, I don't think he'll appreciate my comparison of his persona to that of an anime archetype.
