In my circles, we have all read this classic book on the warrior mindset. But just realize this is coming from a U.S. military officer. The "way of life" he promotes is difficult to integrate in most suburban dojo settings. It is serious food for thought for those who are advanced martial artists (or to wish to be such). I am sure the mothers of the many 3 and 4 year-old "little tigers" would be appalled, no perhaps just surprised, at Morgan's insistence on a "warrior mentality" for true practice. But, as I said, it is a must read for anyone over the age of 16 and who is serious about their training. Oh, the only thing that I totally disagreed with was his recommendation for a high-carb diet. Maybe if you are a Navy Seal, but haven't you heard about the obesity epidemic in America? And yes, this applies to many so-called serious martial artists as well. Fruits and vegetables people.
