Bokken, Art of the Japanese Sword
by Dave Lowry.
Ohara Publications, Inc. Burbank, California. c. 1986. 192 pages, paperback.
ISBN# 0-89750-104-7.
A concise manual of training for the bokken, the wooden practice sword. Dave Lowry is an accomplished writer
who, in my opinion, can wax beautifully poetic in many of his essays. In this book, Lowry is less philosophical, more technical, and his writing skills enable him to produce a very clear training manual for the bokken. Drawing on his experience in aikido, Yagyu Shinkage-ryu swordsmanship, and iaido, Lowry compiles a series of exercies and partner-based exercises with the bokken that would be of interest to aikiken practitioners, and others who want an introduction in the use of the
bokken. |
