Nakamura Taisaburo is one of the most famous Japanese swordsmen of the 20th century, widely acknowledged as the preeminent re-invigorator of the practice of tameshigiri (test cutting) as a test of technical and spiritual mastery. In this book, Nakamura sensei presents readers with the foundations of the art of the sword, including technical information, thoughtful analysis, and fascinating recollections of his own training and teaching.
