Renaissance Swordsmanship - The Illustrated Use of Rapiers and Cut-and-Thrust Swords, Clements, John, Paladin Press, 1997
- Mr. Clements seems determined to alienate a good portion of his potential audience by repeated jibes at
theatrical combat, but tone aside, there is interesting information and plenty of useful illustrations in this
work. It does a commendable job of expanding on original period source materials with possible martial
interpretations of the techniques.

-
Sigmund Ringeck's Knightly Art of the Longsword, Lindhold, David and SvÃrd, Peter,
Paladin Press, 2003
- Translation of Ringneck's work with interpretive drawings - a note, it is easy to discredit your scholarship when you state "No known picture of S.R. exists" and then
proceed to make one up. We can only wonder why the editor didn't point this out.

- I haven't gotten to this one yet
- Aikido for Life, Homma, Gaku, North Atlantic Books,
1990
- Adult approach to Aikido without mysticism but with some pithy
aphorisms
- Aikido, The Principles of, Saotome, Mitsugi, Shambhala,
1989
- Lot's of pictures, but poor text and no movement paths delineated.
- Aikido - The Way of Harmony, Stevens, John, Shambhala
Publications, 1984
- Good Text, good pictures and an excellent aproach. Certianly the
best book on Aikido that we have.
- Art of Japanese Swordsmanship, The - A Manual of Eishin-Ryu
Iaido, Suino, Nicklaus, Weatherhill, 1994
- Detailed descriptions and line drawings that once again, beg for a
video for the intracacies to be clarified. The book yields to close
reading like few others.
- Balisong Manual, The, Imada, Jeff, Know Now Publishing,
1984
- Excellent book on how to manipulate a butterfly knife and then a very
clear and interesting section on technique.
- Blade Master - Advanced Survival Skills for the Knife
Fighter, Sanchez, John, Paladin Press, 1983
- Next book in sequence to Slash and Thrust, this text advocates a
strong "tennis" grip while conceeding that eastern martial arts combine
with the "reverse" grips to become very effective and the author
totally disdains the "foil" grip.
- Bruce Lee's Fighting Method, Lee, Bruce & Uyehara, M., Ohara
Publications, 1976
- Dated but fun to look at some classic moves. Large pictures that
can't begin to give a feel for the speed of this artist.

- Excellent illustrations and clear examples of basic non-weapon techniques
- Bo - Karate Weapon of Self-Defense, Demura, Fumio, Ohara Publications, 1976
- Good reference work with good quality photos showing some sequence and powerful final forms. Text to describe dynamic is rough
and the long sequences with 60+ pictures require enourmous concentration to wade through. Oh, for a video.
- Bokken - Art of the Japnese Sword, Lowry, Dave, Ohara Publicaions, 1986
- Decent photos for forms but text is less than illuminating and weapon paths are not delinated.
-

- Containts simple line drawings and very practical text walking the reader through 2 ~38 move katas - one for sword and the
other for broadsword
-
English Martial Arts, Brown, Terry, Anglo Saxon Books, 1997
- In two sections, the first half of the book is an excellent reference and contains a substantial amount of primary source
quotations that make it a valuable compilation on its own. The second section of forms and stop-motion photographs of sequenced attacks is
less valuable but wards and stances are well researched and provide some source material.
- Fatal Flute and Stick Forms, Poi, Chan, Unique Publications, 1985
- Most of this techinique won't leave your flute on playable condition, but there are some tidbits for form here. Pictures show
only final positions, so dynamic is lost.
- Ferocious-Enchanted Staff of the Ancient Monks, Ting, Leung, Leung Ting Company, 1986
- Drawn from an old Chinese edition, this translation is interesting but technique lacks philosophy for intention. Useful moves for
spear technique but difficult form.

- Kung Fu Dragon Pole, Cheung, William, Ohara Publications, 1986

- Naked Blade - A Manual of Samurai Swordmanship, Obata, Toshishiro, Dragon Books, 1985
- Totama Ryu Batto Jutsu basic techniques. Simple and practical with good pictures and illustrated blade paths.
-
Kyudo - The Art of Zen Archery, Stein, Hans Joachim, Element Books Ltd., 1988
- Excellent text linking Zen concepts to the martial arts. One of my "must reads" for the serious student, the description of the Heki-ryu
school's technique is as detailed and clear as words can be, and the historical and philosophical notes are superlative.
-
Martial Arts of the Orient, Lewis, Peter, Gallery Books, 1985
- Karate, Kung Fu, Jui Jitsu, Judo, Aikido, Taekwon-do, Fighting Kingdom of Siam, Weapons of the Martial Artist. Lots of pictures -
coffee-table book.
- Ninja Cloak and Dagger - Espionage and Weapon Techniques, Kim, Ashida, Paladin Press, 1987

- Ninja Sword, The - Art of Silent Kenjutsu, Toda, Katsumi, Dragon Books, 1986

breakdown of blade parts in Japanese

- Okinawan Weapons - Bo Fighting Techniques, Long, Harold and Little, Phil, National Paperback Books, 1987
