Description

First published in 1914, this self-defense manual was written by Nohata Showa, a pioneering women's historian and martial arts practitioner. A groundbreaking work for its time, it remains an important resource for anyone interested in the history of women's empowerment.

This revised edition features the original booklet reproduced in color, along with an English translation and an introduction to Onna Bugeisha, female Samurai. The result is a unique insight into the lives and experiences of women who have shaped Japan's martial arts heritage.
