[TheNeverendingTBR · Rating 3 out of 5]

This one has 29 pages of text which focuses on history of martial arts, breathing techniques and critical point of the human anatomy to bring your assailant down.

After the pages of text it's illustrations of techniques, which are black and white, some where difficult to comprehend.

Would like to see an updated version of this old 70's book.

It was originally designed as a military book, but it transcends to anyone interested in self defence and weapons training.
