Description

Master swordsman, calligrapher, and Zen practitioner, Yamoaka Tesshu is a seminal figure in martial arts history. John Stevens’s biography is an engaging, detailed account of Tesshu’s outstanding life. From Tesshu’s superhuman feats of staying power and keen perception in life-threatening scenarios, to his skillful handling of military affairs all over the politically volatile era of early 19th-century Japan, Stevens recounts the tales that experience made Tesshu a legend. That is the book all martial artists should own.
