Pressestimmen
"At last! The martial arts have long awaited a book on genuine iaidõ. It could only have been done properly through a Japanese-American collaboration like this—Master Shimabukuro, with his unparalleled expertise and classical training, and Mr. Pellman, who has translated this unique philosophy into understandable Western terms. Flashing Steel will be a true milestone of the art."

Kurzbeschreibung
This book is much more than an introductory guide to Muso Jikiden Eishin-Ryu Iaijutsu. It manages to emphasize a melding of the Eastern philosophy and the technique of the art, in a marvelously eloquent yet concise manner. Flashing Steel describes and pictures forty-two kata (formal training patterns) which govern this system, with ten partner exercises applying iadid principles in realistic attack and defense systems. These kata are also widely practiced by students of kendo, aikido, and other martial arts which use swordsmanship.

Something for everyone,
Von Ein Kunde
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Flashing Steel: Mastering Eishin-Ryu Swordsmanship: Mastering Eishin-Ryu Swordmanship (Taschenbuch)
This book has something for everybody interested in martial arts not just swordsmanship. If you want to learn the basic moves for sword drills or kata from a recognised and reputable school then you are more than adequately catered for with a full run-down of the core teachings of Eishin Ryu. The descriptions and the photographs are clear and well thought out. If you follow Eishin Ryu or its derivatives anyway, this section is informative and can add to your appreciation of your own style. The best thing is that this section is the least important of the book. The main part of the book gives you an insight into the deeper aspects of training properly in any art and it reinforces many of the lessons that my instructors have tried to teach me. Difficult ideas are explained succinctly and should be accessable to beginners as well as experienced martial artists. It is difficult to talk about philosophy and attitudes to life as well as training whilst remaining practical and relevant to people who live in the real world, but this book manages it.To sum up this book made me want to train and hasn't made it back onto the bookshelf yet, I keep dipping into it. Buy this book and lend it to everyone you train with. Helfen Sie anderen Kunden bei der Suche nach den hilfreichsten Rezensionen

An absolutely wonderful book for ANY martial artist,
Von Sanjeev Selvaraj (Boston, MA) - Alle meine Rezensionen ansehen
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Flashing Steel: Mastering Eishin-Ryu Swordsmanship: Mastering Eishin-Ryu Swordmanship (Taschenbuch)
Upon reading the first perhaps 30 pages of this book, I was astounded. I thought that I was merely purchasing an introductory guide to Muso Jikiden Eishin-Ryu Iaijutsu. I was thrilled to find that it was so much more.After having studied and informally taught martial arts (Hap Ki Do) for over 13 years, I have consistently emphasized a melding of the Eastern philosophy and the technique of the art. This book achieves the same in a marvelously eloquent, yet concise, manner. What is presented in the first 50 pages or so includes a beautifully written treatise on Bushido, the way of the samurai, including wonderful parables and stories about famous warriors, such as Miyamoto Musashi and Takeda Shingen. This includes the practical attitude toward how to live one's life that the samurai maintained. It is written in such a way as to be easily understood by all, Easterner and Westerner alike. This way of thought (reminiscent of the Art of War or A Book of Five Rings) can greatly benefit anyone's life, whether they are interested in the Asian fighting arts, or not. Of course, in addition to this remarkable exposition is about 200 pages of well-explained, well-illustrated (with plenty of clear photos) instruction of Eishin-Ryu iaijutsu. Included with the waza (technique), is full documentation of sword and samurai traditions, customs, and ettiquette. The style itself is very diffucult, as iaijutsu is the art of drawing the sword, destroying your enemy, and resheathing in one rapid, fluid motion. The book is quite clear, however, and provides a model introduction, or supplement, to formal dojo training in this art. Helfen Sie anderen Kunden bei der Suche nach den hilfreichsten Rezensionen

Very Philosophic,
Von T_Skip@Yahoo.com (Illinois) - Alle meine Rezensionen ansehen
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Flashing Steel: Mastering Eishin-Ryu Swordsmanship: Mastering Eishin-Ryu Swordmanship (Taschenbuch)
Not only does this book provide great information on many wazas or techniques but it also gives much insight into the whole Samurai way of thinking.
