adventurous informative sad slow-paced

3.5

Really great book! Loved learning about The Yakuza and the Japanese Underworld and how its changed over the years. The story of Saigo was really engaging as well as the other people you learn about. Adelstein has a great way of writing non-fiction as if it's fiction. My only complaints would be a few grammar mistakes and the chronology could be a bit confusing at times.
