Good pictures and helpful pointers,
By Walter Reade (Appleton, WI United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Sport of Judo (Paperback)
The beginning and intermediate Judo student will be pleased with book. It is a good introduction to the major Judo techniques, starting with the basics such as falling and unbalancing you opponent, and then introducing a number of the more common techniques (throws, sweeps, chokes, and holds). Each technique is accompanied by a number of pictures showing the progression of the moves (including different variations) as well as good explanatory text.There is good reason that this book has had 48 printings!

This review is from: The Sport of Judo (Paperback)
This is one of the old, simple books on Judo. No frills and no extended theory. Just the real stuff done by men who know the sport. This is a great book for any Judo student to learn from and to keep as a reference. Bought a bunch of them as gifts for my Judo students.
