Japanese Sword Drawing: A Sourcebook

A wonderfully illustrated book which also provides excellent detailed instructions on the correct use of the Japanese sword. This book is quickly becoming a classic and I regard it as THE best book on the subject of Iaido (in English) written to date.

This book is probably the most in-depth book on Japanese swordsmanship I have ever read. There is enough information in this book to work on for years literally with time and patience. I have been involved in the martial arts for close to six years and have had exposure to numerous arts, and I have always supplemented my training with videos and book material. This book lives up to its claims in every way and is a huge step forward in the preservation of Japanese swordsmanship. I recomend it to any student of the Martial arts regardless of style.
