I provide a professional advisory and consultancy service on all aspects of Japanese culture, but I am best known for my books about samurai, martial arts and the military history of Europe and the Far East.

I lecture on Japanese Religion at Leeds University, and have recently returned from Akita International University in Japan, where I was Visiting Professor of Japanese Studies.

All the slides shown here are available for hire through my picture library 'Japan Archive', which contains 13,000 pictures of Japan, China, Korea and Medieval Europe, and is now completely digitalised. Please do not hesitate to e-mail me directly at:

stephenturnbull@ntlworld.com.

I will be pleased to discuss giving a talk, a loan of pictures, or any other project. Consultancy work for television and films can usually be arranged at very short notice.
