    The Best TKD Book I've Read

    This book is the easiest to read, most informative book on the art of Taekwondo I have ever read. The history, philosophy and the techniques are all discussed and shown is this treasure of a book. For the avid student, I urge you to get a copy.

    Great Overview Book for the Art/Sport

    This Taekwondo book excels in what it hopes to accomplish in terms of communication, and succeeds beyond all expecttions. The Korean history detailing the development of the martial arts ranks as the most comprehensive of any volume available to the public. The authors provide clear and precise instructions for the techniques; also, the use of drawings (with directional arrows) instead of photographs helps to clarify the movements without the often blurry photos found in other martial arts texts. The section of forms is somewhat confusing, but understandable after some experience with the forms first hand. Overall, this is a wonderful edition to any Taekwondoist's library.
