This past week, I was in the 'big city; and picked up a few books:
Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind by Shunryu Suzuki - I've heard of this one over the years. It was time to buy it, it seemed.
Bushido: The Soul Of Japan by Inazo Nitobe - A reprint of the description of bushido from 1905. A very good read thus far.
and
The Heart of Kendo by Darrell Max Craig - Because I've been itching to learn sword and this text, at least, describes the basic stances and grips.
All in all, a good haul,; having spent a scant $17.00 for all three books in excellent condition.
