Hard-Won Wisdom From The School Of Hard Knocks (Revised and Expanded): How To Avoid A Fight And Things To Do When You Can't Or Don't Want To - Paperback

The author's actual experiences provide the backbone for this realistic look at self-defense.

In this revised and expanded edition of the Paladin Press classic, Burrese covers the physical aspects of self-defense such as punching, kicking and other related training, but more importantly, he covers the little discussed aspects of self-defense and fighting. Things such as: what you are wearing, who you are with, and most importantly your mental state and realizing when you don't have to fight. If you want to learn how to avoid a fight, or what to do when you can't or don't want to, this book is one you will thoroughly enjoy and learn from.
