Description

The world's only illustrated guide to the real ninja teachings of historic Japan presents 150 easy-to-follow lessons in a highly accessible 'how-to' format. Drawing on historical Japanese scrolls, this manual offers a unique insight into the skills and techniques used by these skilled spy-commandos. Contrary to popular Hollywood clichés, the reality of being a ninja is far more complex and intriguing. The book covers all the basics of ninja warcraft, including clever ideas for infiltrating enemy compounds, tactics for hiding and retreat, and ways of crossing marshes and water. From wearing 'silent sandals' to faking passes and passwords, this manual provides a comprehensive guide to the art of ninjutsu. With its unique blend of history, strategy, and practical advice, this book is an ideal resource for anyone interested in martial arts, sports, or military history.
