Kuniyoshi Bibliography

The most important references are in red. Books that primarily reproduce a single series, or several closely related series, are in blue.  Robinson’s Kuniyoshi: The Warrior-Prints (1982) and its 1996 unpublished supplement by B. W. Robinson and Arthur R. Miller* are worthy of special mention.  They are the basis for most of the ordering and descriptions of warrior prints on this website.
