Overview
Blood, Sweat & Years is the story of one man's journey in Aikido from novice to 5th degree Black Belt. It is a light-hearted description of the trials, tribulations but most all fun over the years. As the Author says on the back cover: "None of the names have been changed to protect the innocent, there aren't any." Extracts from the Forward by Sensei Tony Sargeant 6th Dan Aikikai: "John has written about his travels, friendship, experiences and often humorous adventures in his quest to embrace this wonderful Martial Art Aikido." "This book has awoken many memories, which I had forgotten of our time together both in the UK and various parts of the world." "I thank John for all that he has given to the Art of Aikido, his accomplishments are more than most will achieve in a lifetime." This is a book that can be enjoyed by the non-martial artist and martial artist.
