Synopsis

This book is for martial artists of all styles and levels of understanding. Master Jones' unique philosophy, combined with life experiences as a former police officer and law enforcement trainer, provides a point of view rarely talked about or expressed so pointedly.

Master Jones takes you to the next level in your study of the bushido. It's no longer theory of what will and won't work. On these pages are the stories, techniques and mind-set of what has and has not worked for the practitioner of a style many consider to be one of the deadliest in existence.
