Book Synopsis Combat Without Weapons (Collector's Edition) by : Captain E. Hartley Leather, R.C.A.
Download or read book Combat Without Weapons (Collector's Edition) written by Captain E. Hartley Leather, R.C.A. and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2020-01-21 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sir Edwin Hartley Cameron Leather (1919-2005) was born in Canada. He is remembered as having been a self-defence expert, successful author, politician and Governor of Bermuda. Despite his endorsement of violent acts against other human beings, as described in his book, Combat Without Weapons, Sir Edwin was a freemason and Anglican lay reader. How he wrestled with the two opposites of aggression v. faith can only be conjectured, but his book was innovative at the time. Historically, the basis for the killing and maiming methods he proposes came about when Edward William Barton-Wright founded his Bartitsu School of Arms in London in 1898. In 1900, Barton-Wright invited S. K. Uyenishi, to teach jujitsu and his methods proved so successful that he began teaching extreme versions to army officers. Following the sowing of these first seeds, jujitsu self-defence techniques spread throughout Britain and abroad, And the rest is now history.
