Hello fellow forumites,

Just wanted to share this publication with everyone called the Chinese Journal of Martial Studies. It's a quality publication that features articles on topics seldom found in the English Language on Chinese Martial Arts.

I'm not in anyway connected with the publishers, etc. (Philip had just recommend a book on the swap forum so I thought it would be okay).

It was brought to my attention from a friend, I bought a subscription and was impressed and thought others might be interested as well as it's always great to find resources to educate oneself.

The issue I just got in the mail today has a nice article on the Manchu Archery by Peter Dekker.

Clicking on some of the tabs off the website you can see articles from the first issue and judge for yourself so as LeVar Burton, said on Reading Rainbow... "But you don't have to take my word for it":shrug: :cool:
