Not sure if theres a thread of this already, sorry in advance if there is but..

I was checking and searching for books and or dvd's of Kenjutsu and Iaido training and studying, but am unsure the best books to buy.

Iaido Eishin Ryu (http://www.chapters.indigo.ca/item.asp?N=35&R=1646498&act=A03&Item=978083480300&Section=books&Catalog=Books&Lang=en&mscssid=7S6LEKM093AD9L7W6VBC81N44RNC5500&WSID=1701C0856909B2CD471EB1CCFB48AE2AC7EC3108) <---this book seems promising for the famous Eishin Ryu Iaido style - does anyone know if this book is worth purchasing?

I also hear Charles Daniel is not a good investment to make because of all the errors in the books he has made.

Grisha,

It really depends on what you are looking to get out of the book or video.
For a great Eishin Ryu book I'll look to "Flashing Steel" by Masayuki Shimabukuro

For ZKNR and others I look to Kim Taylor, his tapes and books are great for enthusiasts and at great prices.

Hope this helps.
