Description
by H. Irving Hancock (Author), Katsukama Higashi (Author)
This 1923 guide from H. Irving Hancock and Katsukama Higashi showcases the art of 'Kano Jiu-Jitsu' latterly known as Judo.
This unique guide brings to life Judo's transitional period and demonstrates not only physical methods of defence, but also the resuscitation and healing arts of Kuatsu.
Across over 500 image plates and a wide variety of diagrams, it lays out the foundation of Kano's system for the reader and gives them a sound understanding of leverage, attack and defence.
The manual also delves into Japanese Physical Culture and the unique martial mind-set of Japanese systems.
Hancock was a well-known sports therapist, psychologist, physical culturalist and Judo / Jiu-Jitsu specialist- and throughout he endeavours to explain the finer points via the subject matter expert Higashi.
