Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
The walking stick is a convenient and formidable weapon in the hands of a man trained to use it. With the carry and use of firearms and knives gradually becoming more restricted by law, the stick is becoming an increasingly viable implement of practical self-defense for ordinary citizens. This book by 'an officer of the Indian Police' is an extraordinary example of a practical martial art text of the early 20th century. The entire range of defensive and offensive skills is discussed and demonstrated, including guards, strikes, combinations, counterattacks, feints and tricks, double-handed techniques and training drills.

Rated by buyers -
This is a well laid out book if you are disciplined enough to follow the exercises as they go. It is very much like learning Martial Arts from a book, The pictures help but would be quicker and easier with an instructor. It will also help if you work in a pair with someone to practice the moves and exercises properly.
Amother choice for this type of instruction is "Stick Fighting" written on Japanese self defense training with a stick..
