Advanced Nunchachaku, and hand weapons by Dan Ivan, the master's master:
THe book displays many numberous uses of the Nunchaku and other such weapons first made in the USA by Dr Don Zarlengo a student of Martial Arts since 1961. Dan Ivan and his protege that he brought to the US in 1965 were the first to demonstrate these common weapons (farm implements) in the USA.
Basic Nunchaku Vol 2:
This book should be a follow up of Demura first book. This book still covers basics, which it does well. I would recommend this as a basic or intermediate book.
Advanced Nunchaku:
The Advanced Nunchaku book by Fumio Demura and Dan Ivan has inspired me and respected myself.The information and pictures are excellent for advanced and people who are better then beginners.This book has a lot of solid information and is well written with perfectly easy to follow steps.Have fun!
Solid presentation of useful techniques.:
Photographs are illustrative and techniques are clearly described. Not a tutorial, rather a presentation of 20-30 useful techniques that can be blended into your own program as needed. I felt I got my moneys worth and would recommend this book to a friend.
