Customer Rating: Summary: A must have for the traditional martial artist Comment: The Classical Man by Richard Kim is simply one of those books that any traditional karate student must have in their library. While the historical accuracy is sometimes debated no-one can argue that the stories are entertaining classics and embody the spirit of "the way".
Customer Rating: Summary: EVERY martial artist should read this. Comment: What made O'Sensei Kim so truly unique and arguably the best teacher of our time was his friendly, matter of fact way of getting martial arts to reach into your life, heart and soul rather than just teaching how to fight. This book contains many of the lessons which makes one a TRUE martial artist as opposed to someone who simply knows the outside moves of karate. Without Zen and kata, karate has no structure and little benefit.
Customer Rating: Summary: a must have Comment: this book is a must have for any martial artist's library.
Customer Rating: Summary: A Good Book With Lots Of Good Information Comment: If you are a training and research nut, this book would fit well in your library. I think every Karateka should have this, the stories Sensei Kim relates in this book show a wealth of information we can learn from. It explains the importance of things that I have seen many students of the Martial Arts take for granted.
