What is Ninjas: Japan's stealthy secret agents about?

Forget the idea that every ninja was a black-clad assassin. In medieval Japan, ninjas, or shinobi, were highly trained spies who gathered information, sneaked into enemy territory and carried out dangerous missions. Discover how these secret agents used disguises, clever tricks and expert fighting skills to survive. Meet legendary figures such as Hattori Hanzo, Fuma Kotaro and the female warriors known as kunoichi, and explore the rise and fall of the ninja clans through exciting illustrations and historical facts.
