Readers of my novel will remember the Urato Facility, Santaku Group's test range and factory on Sabusawa Island.

Here's the real Yamazaki Shipyard-- which in the story became the Urato Facility-- as it launched the hybrid Japanese-Western style vessel Kaiseimaru, in the 1850s.

Interesting. Discussion of some documents in which and close associates discussed possible methods for murdering .

"Maybe we'll get him and his men really drunk, and then separate their heads from their bodies."

Unclear to me whether this suggests they ever came anywhere close to thinking of actually doing so, vs. merely discussing the possibility.

In Bakumatsu era, neither Kaishu Katsu nor Takeaki Enomoto were venerable origin.
Their family bought the status of the Shogunate retainer, with the money.
