I've read this book.

You're going to get exactly what you'd expect to get from a book written by a training-junkie-turned-instructor with no practical "real-world" experience: A narrative which reads like an expounded course curriculum.

In other words, it's like the overwhelming majority of "training" books out there: hardly original and mostly rote, and written by someone with an undeservedly high impression of himself and his "accomplishments". After all, a guy who has, apparently, never actually DONE any gunfighting, has written a book self-styled after the book written by the most proficient sword fighter in Japanese history. If that isn't an undeserved ego trip in and of itself, I don't know what is (in this community).
