I think they had scripture early on during the time the emperor was both religious and political leader than a shogun. but the shoguns just incorporated Buddhism for happy occasion like weddings, births, summer holyday, and Shinto was just solemn to shrines for other things. the general rules about Shinto is belief in a certain pantheon and that the emperors' line in the direct bloodline of the goddess Amaterasu. Since the emperor would be the most accessable "god" on hand, he had ultimate control. and some particular holysites, shrines, and like great epic battles.

Does Shinto have a holly book?

Shinto does not have a holy book like many other religions do. Instead, its beliefs and practices are transmitted through a combination of oral traditions, rituals, and various texts that are not considered sacred in the same way. Important texts related to Shinto include the "Kojiki" and "Nihon Shoki," which contain creation myths and historical accounts, but they do not serve the same role as a central holy scripture. Shinto is more focused on rituals, kami (spirits), and the relationship between humans and nature.
