Though I was primarily involved in the Japanese martial arts, I did study Tai-Chi and a little Kung-Fu. I found this book interesting when I purchased it in 1970. This provides a basic history, philosophy and origin of this Kung-Fu system. It also covers the basic eighteen exercises of Pa-Kua, as well as the main principles of this Chinese boxing art. The photographs are clear but I do not believe you can really learn this art by just reading this book. If you are studing this King-Fu system this book can help to clarify the movements your instructor has taught you. In conclusion, this book is of value for those who are studying with a Pa-Kua teacher. Rating: 4 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: Martial Art Myths, Season of the Warrior, Never Trust a Politician, Shotokan Karate Self-Defense Techniques: Combat Karate for the street, Tano-Jutsu Manual, PR-24 Police Baton Advanced Techniques).
