The straight lead

 Many of you will be aware of the book 'The Straight Lead', by Terri Tom.

The book delves into the signature punch that was developed by Bruce Lee and is a fundamental tool in the arsenal of Jeet Kune Do (or to use the subtitle of Terri's other book, 'arsenal of self expression' ).

It has been out of print for some time now and some second hand copies are offered for sale for frankly ridiculous prices, but if you want the book, but not pay as much as that, then rest assured. 

Terri Tom has anounced a revised version of the book, that will be released in May this year. 

It will be available through Amazon.  She says that all photos will be enhanced in high definition, and there will be an entirely new intro, which she described as ' a corker of a new intro'.. 

I have the original print but will order the new version and report back on my findings.   Here are the original (left) and new edition (right) side by side.


Walk On!
