Talk:James Clavell's Shogun

Here is my idea for this page:

Historical Equivalents of Characters

• the actual historical characters who the fictional characters were based on

Does anyone have that list that was posted somewhere at some point that gave the names of all the people the characters were based on?

Yup.
