Ok so it’s like 400 page chronology that starts in 300BC or so.

If you really like history thats only slightly related to karate particularly goju you’ll enjoy this book.

If you want some level of insight into how goju and karate was trained before WWI, I have not really seen much of that.

So far I’m only 30 or so pages in. Nothing particularly interesting in regards to training related information.

Apparently some fancy martial arts committee labeled goju as an ancient Japanese martial art, the only style of karate to be recognized as such

Wanna know when some random dude you’ve never heard of was born? It’s the right book for you lol

He almost got finished early in the fight, so it's a good comeback for him.
