International Samurai expert, Dr. Stephen Turnbull, provides historical insights into these legendary warriors in this documentary program described as "powerful and intriguing" by the Los Angeles Times.

For over two thousand years, the way of the Samurai was the law of the land for the kingdom of Japan. These valiant warriors lived their lives by a code of honor, dispensing justice at the end of a sword and defending the island from attack. The strength and skill of the Samurai is legendary, with historical accounts of superhuman feats and immunity to pain. Numerous Hollywood movies have attempted to portray these wise and fierce warriors, but none before have presented the complete history and philosophical code of the Samurai that is contained in this acclaimed program. Based on the works of Dr. Stephen Turnbull and featuring some of the top Samurai scenes from popular motion pictures, this program takes you on an amazing journey, along the true path of the last, great warriors.—Eric Parkinson, Executive Producer
