<It is the book Shogun was based on, I think.>

That can't possibly be right, if the brief synopsis in your post is anything to go by. Shogun is a fictionalized account of the wars and intrigues that led to the ascension to supreme power in all Japan (The Shogunate) of the real-life Lord Tokugawa (called Toranaga in the book). The Tokugawa dynasty ruled in Japan for close to 200 years, if I remember correctly.
