This book may appear to be small in size, but like all good books, it should not be judged by it's cover.
The author has trained in shotokan karate-do for over thirty years and in this book has shared many of the lessons he has learnt during that time.
As a fellow writer, and a student of karate myself for over three dacades, I can say with some conviction that this small tome will help those who are starting out on the path of budo, to see more clearly the deeper meanings behind the lessons they learn in the dojo.
Though sometimes simplistic, sometimes subtle, the insight found within the pages of this book will no doubt leave their mark on all who read it. Even experienced budo-ka will find much to help illuminate their path
In a world where the traditional values of budo karate seem to be eroding, or slipping away, and are perhaps in danger of being lost to future generations of budo-ka, Paper Wraps Rock shines like a beacon of light, on a dark night.
Well written, funny, and in many ways: innocent. This is a book I am very please to have on my shelf. In fact, I liked it so much, I bought all my students a copy for Christmas!
