A friend of mine has recently started training at a Shotokai club at his university.

As it is his birthday soon, I thought I would buy him a book or a video

Can any one recommend a decent Shotokai book/Video?

Many thanks

Gary

How about these books on Sensei Harada? These are more historical types of books but definitely make interesting reading. I have both of them.

Karate Master - Life and times of Mitsusuke Harada (http://www.kamikazeweb.com/index.php?action=article_detailed&id=00188&type=cesta&ptrcode=52129)

Reminicences by Master Harada (http://www.kamikazeweb.com/index.php?action=article_detailed&id=00189&type=cesta&ptrcode=52129)

There is always the Egami book. This has more photos and information on technique.

Karate Do by Shigeru Egami (http://www.kamikazeweb.com/index.php?action=article_detailed&id=00228&type=cesta&ptrcode=52129)

This is more of aquestion than a recomendation. Would you consider "Karate-do Nyumon" to be a shotokai book?
