About This Item
Tokyo, JA: Kodansha, ( 1964 ). First Edition, later printing. Hardcover. Very Good/very good. 4to, xiv, 293 pages, cloth
With a photograph of Jigoro Kano, the Founder of Kodokan. Kodokan Judo became established as a modern adaptation of traditional Jujitsu in 1882, and credited to Jigor Kano. "To attain great peroficiency in Judo as a technique, it is, needless to say, most advisable for the student to receive actual instruction as to the techniques from an able teacher. But also he needs to be correctly informed of the basics and general aspect of Judo ... For this alone the present volume will be a good reference book for the novice under instruction. At the same time we believe it will serve as a manual for those who are unable to obtain the assistance of a proper instructor - Preface by Risei Kano." Profusely illustrated.
