Customer Reviews

excellent
I got this book to read to my 6 year old son who is one of Franks students but once I started I read the whole book from cover to cover. This book realy does show you the true spirit of wado-ryu, Frank is a truely great man, genuin and honest & its an honour for my son to be tought by the great man himself.

A great read for Wado enthusiasts
The author tells of his experiences and training in Japan in the 1970's.

This is not a book to learn karate from, but it is a great read for anybody who has studied karate and dreamed of training in Japan.
