[edit] Change

Changed the See Also reference to Clavell's Gai-Jin rather than Shogun. Shogun is set in the 17th century, beginning of the Edo Era, predating sonno-joi. Gai-Jin is set at the end of the Edo Era, mid-19th century, when the Sonno-joi movement was pivotal in overthrowing the bakufu. I really enjoy Clavell's work, except for his benighted changing of Tokugawa to Torunaga for reasons I cannot begin to fathom. I mean, Ieyasu is not going to sue! TimBovee 18:09, 8 Jul 2004 (UTC)
