"Kamakura: Fact and Legend" has long been the definitive work on Kamakura.

"Kamakura: Fact and Legend," the only book that Iso Mutsu wrote, is a testament to the devotion with which she succeeded in unlocking Kamakura's secrets for the outside world. The inspiration and reference for later works on Kamakura, this classic volume is both the original and most in-depth guide to an ancient capital that continues to delight and amaze the traveler
