cool stuff. i have his first two books on the subject and I talked with him over the phone about this one and he says there will be many more applications for the empty hand and saber practice.

yup Dennis included the photos of the original and expanded the content including applications for empty hand as well as weapons. He hopes that the publisher will keep as much of the manuscript as possible. Cant wait to order a copy of it.

One of my students showed me the first edition, or his first book, a few weeks ago. You all are impressed enough to cough up money for it eh? There are much better books out there on the subject.

Jake the first book did not include much info, agree, the second one looks better done, so it is not that bad to see, plus 11 bucks is not that much. I think it will be a good source for those interested in the way XYQ was practice in the military in that time. peace
