Description
Jujutsu 1913: A Rare Glimpse into Japan's Martial Arts Past This rare instruction manual from 1913 offers a unique insight into Jujutsu, a martial art that was once a major force in Japanese combat. The Shinto Rikugo School, which published this guide, aimed to compete with the popular Kodokan Judo, and its techniques are still studied today. The book features over 200 black and white photographs and illustrations, showcasing the proper way to execute various throws, sweeps, chokes, and grappling techniques. For researchers or practitioners of Jujutsu, Judo, BJJ, or Japanese martial arts, this publication is an invaluable resource that sheds light on how Jujutsu was taught in the pre-war era. With titles and descriptions translated into English for the first time, this book provides a rare opportunity to explore Japan's martial arts heritage.
