ok book

I've always enjoyed Chinese culture, especially Kung-fu culture. This book is fulfilling my interest in that. An informative read. Recommended.

I've read the ebook version, and I felt like buying the print version. This book's layout and typography are a cut above the usual kindle fare, and it has nice photos in every chapter.A history of the Shaolin Temple and related martial arts, you can feel while reading that it's a translation; it doesn't flow as well as if it was originally in English... But not so much that it's a detriment to the reader's enjoyment. It handles the subject matter with reverence and care and is a great read for the (sadly few) people who take an interest in these subjects.

Shi Yonxin is an accomplished author, with a very smooth and easy writing style. Always a pleasure to read his works.Highly recommended!
