Osu! Bloke,
I think Kancho will be translating it at some point, but in the meantime he has an autobiographical book 'My Journey in Karate, the Sabaki Way' Which will probably cover most of the Japanese version. It's not a technique book, but a very interesting read. The later version also contains a long interview with Sensei Kishi (one of the original New York Instructors) and a man Kancho really respects. 10/10 Gary

Thanks Gary
After Karate my next love (besides my wife and unborn child - you never know who is reading) is books. So books like this are a real treat. Any idea where I can get my hands on one?

Osu! Bloke,
Amazon.co.uk: low prices in Electronics, Books, Music, DVDs & more - just enter 'Ninomiya' - new ones out of stock but you can get a used one for next to nothing! Gary

Osu! Bloke, tried to PM you but your inbox is overflowing!
I'll see what I can get done. Kancho does beautiful calligraphy so well worth getting a signed one if I can. If you PM me your address I'll bang it in the post when I get back. Gary

Judging from the new book content - I see that now he writes about the years in Denver and his life in Colorado.
In the previous biography he doesn't talk to much about those years.
