The Best Book of Martial Arts

32 pp. | Kingfisher | August, 2002 | Trade ISBN 0-7534-5448-3 $$12.95
(4) K-3 Best Book Of series. Double-page spreads capably introduce various forms of martial arts, including karate, jujitsu, judo, and sumo wrestling. The layouts, overcrowded with mediocre color art and numerous captions, contain some historical background; show various movements typical of the sports, such as throws and blocking; and include facts about the clothing and weaponry sometimes used.
