Ninjutsu Basic Skills & Techniques Book by Robert Bussey (Revised Edition)

Robert Bussey has been dubbed by the media as the ‘King of Combat’. Before reaching heights as a martial arts innovator, he was known for pioneering the Ninja arts from Japan to the United States. This early work was originally intended as a photo manual for his students and covers various fighting techniques, stances, sword work, and invisibility. This 40th Anniversary edition includes content as it was originally released, plus never-before-seen photographs. Ninjutsu: Basic Skills and Techniques is a window into American martial arts history and the young trailblazer who was instrumental in transforming and popularizing it.
