This review is from: Skills of the Vagabonds (Hardcover)
Loaded with info on a little known sect of Chinese assassins that were the forerunners of the ninja.I enjoy the fact that it combines history,martial technique,use of poisons,mysticism,and concealment.Buy it,you won't be disappointed.

4.0 out of 5 stars a book that should be in martial art lovers library, March 17, 2000
By 
it is only a brief comment. it is an unusual book on an unusual martial division of chinese martial arts. I have read most,if not all of the books in chinese language available from the pre50s to the current date. There are NONE that talks on this style. we do have heard lots about these during our growth period about the contents mentioned in this book,these stories are getting less and less heard in the recent twenty years. So even for an average chinese,this book is a must buy to complete the record of chinese martial art, it fills the gap of the orthodox and common styles,like the shaolin,wudang,waigia,neigia,or even the less common west china Emei, the vagabond is an unique style, for the non chinese style,it is definitely a must read to get a fuller understanding of the chinese martial art...of the wild world,not merely schools and cities.
