My book review of Michael Heskew et al, Fighting Techniques of the Oriental World

My book review of -- left on Amazon site--

Michael Heskew et al Fighting Techniques of the Oriental World
3 out of 5 stars
Good drawings, but battles need more historical context--book needs better editing.
Chapters are by different authors, and need good overall editing for style to be consistent.

Diagrams/drawings are very good, but text is variable for above reason.
