"The appearance of Japan's first warrior government, the Kamakura Bakufu, in the 1180's marked an important stage in the maturation of the provincial warrior elite. The Bakufu's emergence meant a shift in the center of gravity away from the court and absentee estate-holders to a warrior class now seeking to wield authority in its own right. This book concentrates on the rank-and-file warrior houses that made up the Bakufu's constituency, and examines the social and economic milieu in which these provincial families operated. It is the first full-length study in English of the institutional bases of the medieval Japanese family.".
