Lavishly illustrated throughout with many previously unseen photographs, this informative book investigates clearly and concisely the birth and subsequent development of Lee's fighting style - both on and off the screen.Following the critically acclaimed companion volume, The Secret Art of Bruce Lee, the text of Bruce Lee in Action moves on a stage further in the authors' examination of Lee's philosophies of fighting, training and teaching. How Lee adapted these theories into a radical and startlingly practical method of combat is fully documented.Once again, rare glimpses of Bruce Lee performing his own breathtaking art in the accompanying sequential photographs are carefully explained by way of detailed and extended captions. Bruce Lee in Action takes a much needed look at the intriguing mixture of fact, legend and controversy that surrounded Bruce Lee.For the first time in over forty years, Bruce Lee in Action has been re-released by Pit Wheel Press as part of the Kung-Fu Monthly Archive Series, in co-operation with Dennis Publishing.
The Unbeatable Bruce Lee is an action-packed insight into a man whose mysterious life proved one the most startling enigmas of the Twentieth Century.Surely, people have thought, "Everything there is to say about Bruce Lee has now been said." The Unbeatable Bruce Lee answers with an emphatic, "NO!" One of the authors of this superb new volume, Paul Simmons, is himself an exponent of judo and karate and in this fine addition to the series readers are presented with a fighters-eye view of Bruce Lee the man and Bruce Lee the martial arts master.Beneath the sheer weight of known facts and figures that surround the tragically short life of Hong Kong's number one son lies a strata of truth that only now is beginning to be picked.For the first time in over forty years, The Unbeatable Bruce Lee has been re-released by Pit Wheel Press as part of the Kung-Fu Monthly Archive Series, in co-operation with Dennis Publishing.This revised edition of The Unbeatable Bruce Lee also features a brand new foreword by renowned Hong Kong expert and former KFM writer Bey Logan.

At the height of the Kung Fu Craze in 1970s Britain, Kung-Fu Monthly was the biggest selling Bruce Lee magazine in the world, even spawning a fan club that would be equally as successful.Kung-Fu Monthly was the longest-running Bruce Lee magazine of its kind anywhere in the world (by frequency and circulation). Such was it's success and popularity, that it was licensed throughout the world; in fourteen countries and in eleven languages. That doesn't even take into account the non-official bootlegs which appeared in Turkey and China. Kung-Fu Monthly would defy the odds and run for a decade, spanning seventy-nine issues plus special editions, books, clothing and other merchandise, all of which turned founder Felix Dennis into a millionaire in the process. Nothing has matched it before or since. It truly has stood the test of time and having done so, has reached legendary status.Kung-Fu Monthly is a snapshot of a time long gone; a time which original Bruce Lee fans remember with fondness and a time which new fans will hopefully discover.For the first time ever and with permission from Dennis Publishing, all issues of the poster magazine have been compiled and edited into three volumes as part of the Kung-Fu Monthly Archive Series, along with all other publications from 1974-1984.Kung-Fu Monthly The Poster Magazines Volume One covers issues 1-26 including the scarce black and white trade dummy edition plus an in-depth illustrated history of the publication during the years of 1973 to 1979.Black and White Paperback Edition (Colour Hardback Edition Available at www.kungfumonthly.uk)
