I have found it in virtually every other bibliography of the other major books on the topic, including most translations of the Book of Five Rings and the Hagakure. When so many other books use this one as a source, I figure it's pretty reliable.

Anyone read it? Is it as reliable as I'm hoping?
Does it have a blue cover?
