Crisp hardcover. ; INSCRIBED on front free endpaper by co-author David Falkner. Publicity flyer and photo from Times Books laid in. "Japan's greatest baseball star trained with a sword as well as a bat to become the most productive home-run hitter of all time and a man of unusual spiritual dimension. ... It was not until Oh met Hiroshi Arakawa, who became Oh's lifelong mentor, that Oh began to fulfill his potential. Arakawa's training methods will seem unusual to Western readers: Zen philosophy and the martial arts were the methods used to make Oh the biggest home-run hitter of all time. Through the story of Oh's career, the reader will see how Japan has adopted Western customs but translated them into a form that is purely Japanese." First Edition, First Printing of the revealing autobiography of Japanese baseball superstar Sadaharu Oh. ; 279 pages; Signed by One Author .
