Autor

Steven Paul Turner worked as a history instructor in Tokyo for many years, after which he completed a PhD at Lampeter in archaeology, history, and anthropology. It was that thesis which formed the basis for this book. He previously worked in publishing and the health service in an IT role, and so is interested in research that requires a multidisciplinary approach. He spends his spare time painting miniature historical armies and researching family trees.
