In this video, I cover the historical background that inspired the character John Blackthorne in the show Shogun. His character is based on the life of an English merchant/sailor named William Adams, who lived an extraordinary life for man in the 1600's. I will cover his story, and also draw some comparisons which occur in the show.
❗Please note: The thumbnail image used for this video is a digitally created representation and not an authentic historical photograph.
In the video itself, I will be showcasing some of the authentic drawings of William Adams. I hope you enjoy the video and the journey through history it presents.
