5.0 out of 5 stars Necessary Text for Uechi-Ryu Beginners, 9 May 1999
By A Customer
I usually do not recommend a book for martial arts study. A few I have found contain the basics that can help a beginner. This is one. Though Mr. Mattson may blush at his form now--he was a 1st degree and he is now a 9th degree--it is sufficient to help a student in self-study.

I would recommend a student use this book to help their study under the guidence of a teacher.

5.0 out of 5 stars It was a facinating look at the world of karate., 12 Feb 1999
By A Customer
I used this book as the primary reference book while doing research for a children's book that I wrote several years ago. Encyclopedias and other karate books just weren't as definitive as Mr. Mattson's. It was fantastic. Thank you for all the illustrations and directions. I thought so highly of this book, that a brief description and thank you is included on my acknowledgment page. It is now several years later and I am finally going to start my own training at a local school.
