  Kakuei Tanaka - a political biography of modern Japan:
Echigo became a vassal province of the Minamoto and was given in booty to Kanto warriors.
For the inhabitants of Echigo, the ascendancy of Minamoto marked the beginning of seven centuries of benign neglect.
In 1343, Echigo was given as a reward to the Uesugi clan by the newly established Ashikaga government.

 Recording: Art of the Shakuhachi Vol II
Reibo is a shakuhachi piece found in a large number of variants, each of which was transmitted by the komuso of a particular temple.
Echigo reibo was transmitted by the monks of a branch of the Myoanji temple in the province of Echigo (today Niigata prefecture).
Again like "Echigo reibo" "Echigo san'ya" too has been outfitted with a program devised by Baio: The first sounds express the shape of Mt. Fuji; as the piece progresses, the mountain is gradually draped in clouds.

 The Monk's Wife   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Gradually she awakens from her elitist views and sees, through the example of Shinran and her relationship to one of "her" own gennin, how all people are embraced by Amida Buddha's compassion regardless of class or any other distinction.
Tabrah's decision about their separation in Kanto makes possible a transformation of attitude in Eshinni in Echigo, who comes to deeply rue having left Shinran, and it makes for a powerful reconciliation between the two of them at the end of the book, as they awaken to their blind passions through their faith in Amida.
When finishing the book, the present writer concluded, "Yes, it must have been something like this!" The beauty of this historical novel is in the choices the author makes to emphasize her deep affinity for and insights into the subject.

From the battle of Tayagawara in 1481, through the battle of Tagaojo, 1488, to encounters in 1506 at Kuzuryugawa and Hanyano, and on to later battles at Sendanno (1536), and Daishoji omote (1555), ikko activities kept a large portion of the Japan Sea coast-the provinces of Kaga, Etchu, Echizen and Echigo-in an uproar.

They gained control of the entire province of Kaga in 1488, and kept it for the best part of a century, and they were responsible for the deaths of two successive deputy governors of Echigo in 1506 and 1536.
