This book is dedicated to exploring the gods and goddesses that the Japanese worshiped, and within the pages you will find subtopics like:

-Ancient, exciting stories and mysterious myths and intriguing legends from Japan -Gods and goddesses that were common in Japan thousands of years ago -Historical anecdotes and fun, related background facts -The intense meaning and purpose of swords in Japanese culture -The controversial legend of Issun Boshi -Real folklore monuments and locations you can visit that date back to times of mythological beliefs

Japanese mythology is intricate and complex, and the ideals behind their mythological beliefs were often intertwined with real-life events. This book will examine how both myth and fact contributed to the culture and traditions of the Japanese, and how these influences and stories continue to live on throughout the centuries.
