The Forgotten Story of How British Redcoats Took on Japanese Samurai

Описание к видео The Forgotten Story of How British Redcoats Took on Japanese Samurai

Samurai vs Redcoat. In this video we examine the multiple times that bayonet and Katana battled during the 1860s. It includes the bombardment of Kagoshima and also the Shimonoseki campaign.

This is the story behind James Clavell’s Gaijin: a tale of samurai, imperialism, politics, war and gunboat diplomacy in the Wild East.

This video also sees the first American earn the Victoria Cross and the ancient rule of the Japanese Shoguns come to an end.
