		As warriors sallied forth from the castles, the battle turned into a melee fought in the middle of the shallow river.
		The battle of Anegawa is vividly presented in the books compiled in the middle or the end of the Edo period.

	Battle of Okehazama - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In this battle, Oda Nobunaga defeated Imagawa Yoshimoto and established himself as one of the front-running warlords in the Sengoku period.

	Amazon.com: Taiko: An Epic Novel of War and Glory in Feudal Japan: Books: Eiji Yoshikawa,William Scott Wilson (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		"Taiko" is mainly a succession of epic feats, battles and military campaigns described indeed with the vividness of a Kurosawa film, but it is also a rich depiction of samurai's way of life, the Bushido, their sense of honour, their households, etiquette and ceremony, like the tea ceremony or the ritual suicide (seppuku).
		It seemed that every resolution to a battle in the book was either Hideoyshi (or his advisor) going to visit an enemy general, dazzling him with his sincerety and within a paragraph the enemy general automatically changes sides.
		But the bulk of the battles were "he routed the enemy", done.
