Samurai! Is the action-packed biography of Japan?s greatest World War II fighter pilot. Here are the harrowing experiences of Saburo Sakai, one of Japan?s most celebrated aces: from fighter pilot school - where the harsh training expelled over half of his class - to the thrilling early Japanese victories, from his incredible six-hundred-mile fight for life from Guadalcanal to his base in Rabaul, to the poignant story of the now-handicapped veteran?s return to the air during the final desperate months of World War II.
