The Author of this title has read every single book on Bruce Lee and JKD that he could get his hands on. Not only that, he has trained with some of the very best in the UK for seven years. The author gives his own opinion judging from the evidence he has gathered from books, experience, and instructor's knowledge. He goes into depth of the process that a JKD practitioner should go through, and also shows how to analyse styles. He also talks very briefly on basic Jun Fan principles. The Author has wrote this in the hope of stopping the politics in the JKD community and making everyone realize that nobody is wrong just misunderstood. He wants to unite the conceptual and original JKD community's and make them realize that they are actually one.
The first thing to know about this book is, it isn’t about me. It’s about the situations I lived through and what I had to do to adapt. And the thing with humans is, we do adapt. Just look at how the nation – the whole world – adapted to having to wash our hands, wear masks and get vaccinated during the global outbreak of Covid-19. If we want to achieve something as a human race, we will do it, and we will adapt. This book is a true story, involving my experience on a mission of goodwill in the tropics of the rainforest, a near death experience on a boat trip in Majorca, and returning to the slow pace of normal life back home.

The art of Jeet Kune Do is difficult to define because its founder, Bruce Lee, wanted individuals to undertake their own journey of self-discovery and self-expression, and hated referring to his art as a style or system. Moreover, JKD is a martial art that is alive and forever changing.
#1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER A shocking exposé of the deadliest killing spree in Canadian history, and how police tragically failed its victims and survivors. As news broke of a killer rampaging across the tiny community of Portapique, Nova Scotia, late on April 18, 2020, details were oddly hard to come by. Who was the killer? Why was he not apprehended? What were police doing? How many were dead? And why was the gunman still on the loose the next morning and killing again? The RCMP was largely silent then, and continued to obscure the actions of denturist Gabriel Wortman after an officer shot and killed him at a gas station during a chance encounter. Though retired as an investigative journalist...

An illustrated history celebrating the 100th anniversary of this historic, working horse ranch located along the eastern slopes of the Canadian Rockies. The story of the Ya Ha Tinda and its evolution into the only continuously operating federal government horse ranch in Canada is much more than the story of the people who worked and lived there. Its ancient history is an amalgam of geological evolution, with archaeological evidence of ancient indigenous people's use of the land for over 9,400 years and a biophysical inventory of flora and fauna unique to this particular landscape. So important is this small footprint, that it has been the source of a constant struggle for control between gov...

In Cape Fear Beaches, with more than 200 rare, black-and-white photographs, you will step back into affectionate memory, when early residents slept in hammocks in precarious beach shacks, when grand buildings, such as Lumina and the Oceanic Hotel, dotted the beachscape, when road repair meant a shovelful of oyster shells to mend a pothole, and when bathing suits left almost everything to the imagination. This volume also recounts the black communitys experiences along these beaches, primarily at Seabreeze and Shell Island, and shares their personal stories and triumphs in a changing social scene, in which Reconstruction values slowly gave way to Civil Rightsera equality. Throughout the book, scenes of proud fishermen, both amateur and professional, with their daily catches, snapshots of family picnics on the beach, and photographs of friends posed with the ocean as a backdrop remind us that at the beach, the pace of life is measured not by the hands of a clock, but by the steady, changing tides.
