Subject: Please recommend books

  Hello shogi fans, my first message here.

  I would like to get my hands on a few good Japanese shogi books.
Specifically I would be interested in a good collection of tsume problems.
Preferably ones starting from basics and perhaps advancing to more
difficult material.

  Also, problems dealing with tactics and tesuji would be interesting.  I
would prefer books of problems, since my ability to read Japanese is still
rather limited.

  Any recommendations will be most welcome.

  Cordially, Pekka Karjalainen
