about this site

The research for and the maintenance of this site is a hobby of several persons who have researched various persons who have appeared in popular culture like the NHK Shinsengumi drama, Rurouni Kenshin and Peacemaker Kurogane animations.

When possible, academic materials are referenced. These materials are cited whenever possible. As these materials should be available to those with academic credentials in institutions in the United States, it is recommended that the original works be requested and cited for book reports or other research projects.

If you would like to assist in these efforts to obtain materials or have a similar site focusing on various figures from the revolutionary era and would like to discuss exchanging links, please do contact the maintainer at red-bird@red-bird.org.
