Practice Drills for Japanese Swordsmanship
by: Nicklaus Suino
Really good book. Helpful since i learn Kendo in Chinese and don't get much explanation for the moves. To be honest though, you really can't practice at home. You really have to go to class.

Flashing Steel, 2nd edition: Mastering Eishin-Ryu Swordsmanship
by: Masayuki Shimabukuro, Leonard Pellman
This is more of a question than a review as I do not as of yet own this book. I do however own the first Flashing Steel as well as the complete DVD series. What I want to or need to know is does this book contain the two new required waza from the ZNKR? There use to be ten (previously there was seven) now I understand that there is twelve. I am some what of a minimalist as I am not rich and do not see the need to continuously purchase the same material over no matter how acclaimed it may be. Not to critisize but the first book was highly held and from the table of contents some one published in one of the reviews it basically looks to be the same book.

The Art of Japanese Swordsmanship: A Manual of Eishin-Ryu Iaido
by: Nicklaus Suino
Though I really enjoyed this book, without a basic knowledge of Iaido, one could easily find the drawings too complex to follow. The book is of value more to a student of Iaido who is taking lessons from a sword master. This text when used in combination with hands-on training would be the best combination. In conclusion, this is a book for anyone interested in basic Japanese Swordsmanship. Rating: 4 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: Wakizashi-Jutsu Manual, Tanto-Jutsu Manual, Martial Art Myths, Monadnock Defensive Tactics System, Use of the Straight Baton, PR-24 Police Baton Advanced Techniques, Samurai Aerobics: The Samurai Sword workout, Never Trust a Politician).

Flashing Steel: Mastering Eishin-Ryu Swordsmanship
by: Shihan Shimabukuro, Leonard Pellman
First let me start by saying this is a fantastic book as the other reviewers have said. With that said the 2nd Edition is that much better. I own both editions. Where the first edition might have 4 photos of a series, the 2nd edition has 16 to 20. This means that you can see what the intermediate positions look like. The first edition is ~270 pages while the second edition is ~335. Also, the second edition is physically larger.
Even if you already own the first edition I would recommend the second edition.
