Here is a book crammed full of secret fighting techniques never before divulged in print: the Oriental delayed death touch, the destruction wrought on by the fingertips of an obscure Mexican; the shout of doom; the method so terrible it is practiced only in Russian torture chambers, the niceties of Thugee strangulation; and many more vicious fighting tricks. Suppressed for generations! Twenty of the world's most secretly guarded fighting techniques vividly described in one volume. The average reader will find this book amazing--almost unbelievable. But many thousands of rugged young men currently practicing and writing about Oriental martial arts in the United States will find it invaluable. They know that such techniques exist, but have never before had the opportunity to learn them. Even those who scoff at such amazing arts should read this book with care.

At last! Here is a book creammed full of secret fighting techniques never before divulged in print: the Oriental delayed death touch; the destruction wrought by the fingertips of an obscure Mexican; the shout of doom; the method so terrible it is practiced only in Russian torture chapbers; the niceties of Thugee strangulation; the lightning-like destruction inflicted by a Peoria bookworm-and many more viciouis fighting tricks.
Suppressed for generations! Twenty of the world's most secretly guarded fighting techcniques vividly described in one volume. John F. Gillbey is, perhaps, the only man alive qualified to write such a book (for a full discussion of Gilbey's qualifications, see page 1249).
The average reader will find thsi book amazing-almost unbelievable. But many of the thousands of rugged young men currently practicing and writing about Oriental martial arts in the United States will find it invaluable. They know that such techniques exist, but have never before had the opportunity to learn them.
However, as the author warns, extreme prudence must be observed in the use of these techniques. Use your power and speed only in practice.
Even those who scoff at such amazing arts should read this book with care.
