DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The Unbeatable Bruce Lee is an action-packed insight into a man whose mysterious life proved one the most startling enigmas of the Twentieth Century. Surely, people have thought, "Everything there is to say about Bruce Lee has now been said." The Unbeatable Bruce Lee answers with an emphatic, "NO!" One of the authors of this superb new volume, Paul Simmons, is himself an exponent of judo and karate and in this fine addition to the series readers are presented with a fighters-eye view of Bruce Lee the man and Bruce Lee the martial arts master. Beneath the sheer weight of known facts and figures that surround the tragically short life of Hong Kong's number one son lies a strata of truth that only now is beginning to be picked. For the first time in over forty years, The Unbeatable Bruce Lee has been re-released by Pit Wheel Press as part of the Kung-Fu Monthly Archive Series, in co-operation with Dennis Publishing. This revised edition of The Unbeatable Bruce Lee also features a brand new foreword by renowned Hong Kong expert and former KFM writer Bey Logan.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →With Bruce Lee in Action, Kung-Fu Monthly have compiled another fine addition to their library of Bruce Lee publications. Lavishly illustrated throughout with many previously unseen photographs, this informative book investigates clearly and concisely the birth and subsequent development of Lee's fighting style - both on and off the screen. Following the critically acclaimed companion volume, The Secret Art of Bruce Lee, the text of Bruce Lee in Action moves on a stage further in the authors' examination of Lee's philosophies of fighting, training and teaching. How Lee adapted these theories into a radical and startlingly practical method of combat is fully documented. Once again, rare glimpses of Bruce Lee performing his own breathtaking art in the accompanying sequential photographs are carefully explained by way of detailed and extended captions. Bruce Lee in Action takes a much needed look at the intriguing mixture of fact, legend and controversy that surrounded Bruce Lee. For the first time in over forty years, Bruce Lee in Action has been re-released by Pit Wheel Press as part of the Kung-Fu Monthly Archive Series, in co-operation with Dennis Publishing.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Originally released in 1976 by Kung-Fu Monthly, The Secret Art of Bruce Lee represented a milestone in the history of the martial arts. At the time of its publication, it was almost the sole surviving photographic record of Bruce Lee's martial arts, Jeet Kune Do, as demonstrated by Lee himself. After lying forgotten for more than a decade, the never-before published photographs in this book were probably the finest illustration of his art that Bruce Lee left to us. To his countless fans and to the serious student their discovery is an exciting event. The accompanying text chronicles the development of Lee's art from its dog-eat-dog origins on the streets of Hong Kong to the perfection of techniques which only he really ever mastered. In addition, extended captions clarify sequential photographs, following through Lee's speciality kata, kicks, punches and weapon use. This action packed and important book is a unique, exclusive insight into the reality which lay behind Lee's reputation as the greatest martial artist of our time. For the first time in over forty years, The Secret Art of Bruce Lee has been re-released by Pit Wheel Press as part of the Kung-Fu Monthly Archive Series, in co-operation with Dennis Publishing.
