I posted this in the general forum but this might be a better place to get info
Yoshindo Yoshihara is releasing a new book titled
The art of the Japanese Sword

There is not, it is the Craft....

This new book would most likely be worth owning.

B.W. Robinson published "The Arts of the Japanese Sword" in 1961.
From the description, it sounds like it duplicates a lot of the material in
The Craft of the Japanes Sword. I'd still likely buy it.
