Love getting Bruce Lee books.
So much wisdom
“One day, his parents decided to send him back to America to keep him out of trouble.“
This book tells the story of the life of Bruce Lee who was born in San Fransisco. The story tells of the hardships he faced and how he overcame them.
This story was published in 2019 and the illustrations are pencil and digitally colored. The story high lights Bruce Lee‘s life and how he not only was from China but was born in San Francisco. It highly lights his important moments but also some of his flaws. I think it was a great representation of a biography.
Some people are unaware of how much strategy is involved on martial arts. They think it‘s random arm swinging. Bruce lee teaches proper defending techniques and strategy that people who make up their own systems don‘t know. There are small details and theory and he covers the fundamentals including advice, how to block or evade attacks, how to deceive and outsmart your opponent. It‘s not a list of combinations, but it is still very useful.
This was a solid biography that provides a fair and full picture of Lee that included his youth as a street punk, his progressiveness in teaching martial arts to all, his determination to break through Hollywood‘s “yellow ceiling,” his egotism and vanity, and his complete and utter lack of faithfulness to his wife. The reader sees Lee for the inspirational but flawed and in some ways disappointing person that he was. Overall I‘ll give it 4/5.
A little repetitive in some places but still enjoyable and great words from Bruce Lee.
Also I found a nice little note from the previous owner.
Love finding stuff like this
