Kenpo Gokui and Isshinryu Book, Hmmm?

I just received word that one of the east coasts leading Isshinryu practitioner under the lineage of Harold Long has self-published a book titled, "The Last Lesson (The Go-kui of Isshin-ryu)," by J. Burris Sensei.

I have someone who was kind enough to mail me a copy which I hope to receive and read in the next few weeks so I can "see" what he has to offer under this category of Isshinryu.

It is the first time I have seen anything published from the Isshinryu community on the more esoteric aspects of this fighting art. I am not sure how you can get an entire book written on just the gokui unless you expanded, as I have, by extending into the ancient classics that it provides direction toward.

It will be an interesting read when I get a copy and I am excited to see how it pans out. I did notice on the cover that the publisher flipped the negative of the "Me-gami" as it appears reversed. To bad :-(

Till then...
