I highly recommand this book on Bruce Lee written by Jesse Glover, his first student who knew him better than the most, and just looked at him as a friend, not so much from the position of a student. If you want to know the actual components of Bruce's skill and how he achieved it, his thinking about Gung Fu and in which ways this thinking changed, his problems in becoming the best and how he overcame these problems, and some rarely known aspects of his personality, this book is probably the best. Not only for Bruce Lee fans, but also very interesting for every Wing Chun- and JKD man, take a look at this book written by Jesse Glover, one of the best teacher and finest gentleman in the martial arts today.

It's really an excellent account of Jesse Glover's association with Bruce Lee. One thing great about Glover's account is the honesty of the account. Glover's greatest contribution to Lee's history is the detailed account of Lee's fighting art and its development as Lee experimented and researched fighting arts. Lee wanted to be the best fighter in the world. The book consists of anecdotes and a good sketch of Bruce Lee in regard to his early years in the US and his rise in fame and the martial arts world. I highly recommend to any Bruce Lee fan or pracititioner of the martial arts.
