## Description

The world's only illustrated guide to the real ninja teachings of historic Japan with original techniques presented in a highly accessible 'how-to' format. The shadowy figure of the ninja―expert commando, secret agent, maverick who operates outside social norms―continues to exert fascination in the West, yet much of what is presented as ninja fact today is distorted or wrong. Drawing on the scrolls created by historical Japanese ninjas (or shinobi, as they were then known), this book offers the real ninja teachings in 150 easy-to-follow, illustrated lessons designed to draw contemporary students of ninja straight into the world of these skilled spy-commandos. The truth about the ninja is so much more complex and intriguing than the Hollywood clichés we know today. We may think, for example, of a ninja as being always garbed in black and fighting with 'throwing stars' but in fact, a ninja had clothes in different colors to serve as disguises for different times of day, and their arsenal of weaponry could include anything from poison, poison gas, pepper spray and fire-creating tools to swords, spears and knives (but no throwing stars). The 150 lessons in this book cover all the basics of ninja warcraft, including clever ideas for infiltrating an enemy compound (from wearing 'silent sandals' to faking passes and passwords), tactics for hiding and retreat (in the racoon dog retreat, a ninja will crouch low and halt, allowing the pursuer to collide with him at speed, whereupon the agent kills his enemy), and ways of crossing marshes and water (for example, with special shoes made of boards, or using a foldaway floating seat). The description is made all the more vivid by step-by-step photographs of the fighting techniques, diagrams outlining military tactics and beautiful samples of Japanese calligraphy.

Review: I have thoroughly enjoyed this excellent book by Antony Cummins - I have thoroughly enjoyed this excellent book by Antony Cummins! It is structured in an easy-to-follow format that is pleasing to read as well as loaded with great images. The historic texts that Ninja Skills draws from are legitimate sources of information written by those that put these principles into practice long ago. This book provides a great resource for folks that have interest in studying genuine shinobi no jutsu, unlike the modern fabricated martial arts versions that have saturated and mislead the world over the last few decades. This will serve as an on-going source of study and research for me and I will highly recommend it to others! I am very pleased with this true representation of the skills of the ninja!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ancient Skills formatted for the Modern Reader
*by N***E on March 15, 2018*

This book is a must for any serious student or enthusiast of Historical Ninjutsu. This is sure to become an indispensable resource and quick reference for studying the legitimate techniques of the historical shinobi (ninja). Drawing from a wide pool of extant historical documents recorded by the ninja themselves, this book breaks down many of the individual skills into easily digestible individual lessons which are perfect for the modern reader. Whether a hardcore historian, experimental archæologist, or armchair enthusiast this book makes the information from the historical record easy to access for reference, personal practice, etc. The layout and format places like skillsets together with others of the same type (i.e. - Climbing Skills, Defensive Skills, etc.) making it simple and easy to reference, compare and contrast skills from a wide scope of historical sources in one easy to navigate volume! Given the expansiveness of historical information from which this material is drawn, I can only hope that this volume will be the first in a series of many more like it!
