THE FIGHTING SPIRIT OF JAPAN is a classic of its kind on the strength of the author's discovery of an esoteric principle underlying virtually all the Japanese martial arts
THE FIGHTING SPIRIT OF JAPAN is a classic of its kind on the strength of the author's discovery of an esoteric principle underlying virtually all the Japanese martial arts, one to which may plausibly be attributed the uncanny skill of Japanese experts in combat with or without lethal weapons. This principle has escaped the attention of the most famous japanologues, and thus it happens that to Mr. Harrison belongs the distinction of disclosing its existence to the West.
I also ask the reader to bear in mind that the book was written before the turbulent years which have passed, and at the same time to appreciate that the explanation of Japan's behaviour may perhaps be found in her ancient arts.AUTHOR'S FOREWORD
