[Machine Translation] There were people who brought the curtain down on an era. The last shogun of the Kamakura Shogunate, the last monarch of the Go-Hojo clan, the last chief of the Edo Shogunate, the last bureau chief of the Shinsengumi, the last courtesan in the inner palace, the last king of the Ryukyu Dynasty.... What did they think, what did they decide, and how did they live through those turbulent days? This is a historical nonfiction book that traces the dramas that do not appear in textbooks and the unexpected end. Newly written for the bunko.
