"This book presents, for the first time in English, the centuries-old fighting art of North China known as Shantung Black Tiger. It is a leading example of the Shaolin style of hand-to-hand combat of a sparring and grappling nature -- often popularly called "Chinese temple boxing" in the West -- that has been passed down secretly through many generations and is now revealed by an authorized Chinese master teacher. The book provides a thorough introduction to every aspect of this important combat system. Its clearly written text, creative picture layout, and copious illustrations -- more than 350 photos and well over 100 drawings -- make the book an invaluable manual for learning and understanding this remarkable fighting art."
