5.0 out of 5 stars A credible book and clearly experienced author, very good, 21 April 2007

By	Stuart (Ireland) - See all my reviews

There are 6 chapters in this book apart from the introduction and conclusion.The chapters are training,distance and leverage. Knife skills. Staff Weapons. Spear and Naginata. Kusari Gama Kyoketsu Shoge. Ninja Sword. Each section starts with the author discussing tactics of how weapons of this type are used and the era from which they came and for exmaple the diffrences of where to strike if a person was wearming armour or not like in olden day Japan etc.. The author explains very well that its often circumstaces that dictate which is the best weapon as well as times we live in. Each weapon has its own introduction at the start of every chapter and the nature of how each weapon is effective or ineffective in different enviroments is discussed.
The author is or was a yondan at the time of the book being published a yondan in Bujinkan Ninpo taijutsu and received his instructors menkyo from Dr Masaaki Hatsumi.
The book in each chapter show many photographs examining diffrent defenses with all the weapons covered in the book. I have to say It makes more comfortable easier reading after having taken part in severeal ninjtusu classes and then coming back to the book a few times. I bought this book before I started ninjutsu classes and I think I might recommend this book to people fairly serious about the art more than a big introduction on all aspects of Ninjutsu or as its called more commonly called now - Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu or Bujinkan Ninpo Taijutsu.
So if your in the art its a good book to buy and I am not going to give it 4 stars becuase I dont see the point, it simply covers the main maojor weapons of the art and shows various techniques. It lives up well to the title of the book.
However I would not recommend it that much for an overview of ninjutsu as thats not what the book is trying to do.
Maybe the best book for that would be Ninjutsu History and Tradition as its written buy the lineage head of Ninjutsu in the world Masaaki Hatsumi.
A final thing to say is you will never learn any martial art from a book. Becuase there is no teacher to trust when looking just from a printed book you need to see the people in person who know and who can show you what to do. However after some classes this book can give you insight into effective techniques and if you were really obssesed maybe with a lot of practise you could learn the tecniques but you need to keep being taught. If your open to joining a martial arts club I highly recommend you try it as you can enjoy it more than just watching or reading and youll feel the diffrence if you find a good teacher. Thanks for reading the review. The book is 150 pages and there is are plenty of photos for each weapon covered.
