More recently, a desire for a more historical view of the ninja has become a popular theme in the history/martial arts community and Antony Cummins is the primary driving force behind that movement. In Search of the Ninja is based upon the Historical Ninjutsu Research Team's translations of the major ninja manuals and consists of genuinely new material. Little historical research has been done on the Ninja of Japan. Here for the first time the connection of the famous Hattori family warriors with the Ninja is explained. The Samurai versus Ninja myth is dispelled. Review: An enjoyable, historical read. - If you are interested in the historical ninja (Shinobi) you will enjoy this book. Having read many of Antony Cummins' other works this is a shorter, less detailed yet still fulfilling addition to my library. It still contains diagrams, photos and descriptions but in a shorter, more easily digestible format. What I really like about his efforts is he presents the information in a documented, historically accurate manner far removed from movie presentations and he also positions them within samurai culture and practices.. Review: Great book on Ninjutsu - This book is amazing. For anyone who is interested in ninjas or ninjutsu, or martial artists or historians will love this book. This is about Real Ninjutsu and Real Ninja. Not fake, phony, knockoff, imitation/fantasy ninjutsu that has been written about by these wannabe ninja authors...... Ashida Kim, Haha Lung, Stephen K Hayes, and Masaaki Hatsumi. Mr Antony Cummins books are amazing. Nevre before has such information about the ninja been available until Antony Cummins wrote and translated his books. Before him, Phony nerds like Ashida Kim, Haha Lung, Stephen K Hayes, and Masaaki Hatsumi made a fortune selling fantasy ninja books. They know nothing about ninjas or ninjutsu. Please everyone don't buy fake ninja books by authors like Ashida Kim, Haha Lung, Stephen K Hayes and Masaaki Hatsumi. Ashida Kim and Haha Lung are barely martial artists and made up a lot of their material for their books and have no sources of where they learned ninjutsu at, while Stephen K Hayes and Masaaki Hatsumi and all affiliated with him are martial artists, but they are not ninja, they don't study ninjutsu, and they know nothing about ninjutsu or ninjas. Antony Cummins is the only reputable author of books dealing with ninjas and ninjutsu. When I was 11 or 12 years old I wasted my money on ashida kim, Stephen k hayes, and masaaki hatsumi's books because they were the only thing available pertaining to ninjutsu and ninja. Now as a grown man I can see through the lies and the rubbish that were written in their books. Thank you Antony Cummins for all your books. they are truly treasurable. I look forward to any new books of his. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,799,437 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,179 in Intelligence & Espionage History #1,836 in Japanese History (Books) #3,248 in Martial Arts (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 88 Reviews | ## Images ![In Search of the Ninja: The Historical Truth Of Ninjutsu - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81wPrDH0ZWL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An enjoyable, historical read. *by A***R on September 24, 2025* If you are interested in the historical ninja (Shinobi) you will enjoy this book.

However, the information is exciting! The book is also very honest about which information is reliable and tries to dry it's conclusions from multiple sources. Hence four stars...maybe five if you want something factual and don't mind dry. ## Frequently Bought Together - In Search of the Ninja: The Historical Truth Of Ninjutsu - Modern Ninja Warfare: Ninja Tactics for the Modern Warrior - The Book of Ninja: The Bansenshukai - Japan's Premier Ninja Manual --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/4610376-in-search-of-the-ninja-the-historical-truth-of-ninjutsu](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/4610376-in-search-of-the-ninja-the-historical-truth-of-ninjutsu) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-14*
