A propos de cet article

Scarce early English-language taekwondo publication from 1965, with text by Stanton E. Read and photographs of Chai Ikjin / Chai Ik Jin. Taekwondo: A Way of Life in Korea is an uncommon square-format pictorial softcover produced during the formative period of modern taekwondo literature and Korean martial arts promotion to Western audiences. Bright yellow pictorial wraps with bold modernist cover design and black-and-white photographic illustrations throughout. Interior title/credit page states: “The text is by Stanton E. Read” and “The photographs are of Chai Ikjin,” with imprint line “Printed in Taiwan by L-C Publishing Company.” Bibliographic references also associate the work with the America-Korea Friendship Association, Seoul, 1965. Condition: Very Good to Very Good+. Bright pictorial wraps show light shelf wear, mild rubbing/scuffing, light edge and corner wear, minor age toning to page edges, and small signs of handling consistent with age. Interior appears clean and unmarked. Binding is sound. No dust jacket, as issued. A desirable early taekwondo title for collectors of Korean martial arts history, vintage martial arts manuals, taekwondo development, Korean cultural history, and mid-century martial arts publications. Offered for collectible, historical, bibliographic, and research purposes only. Hidden Shelf Books does not endorse or verify the claims, legal theories, political views, or instructions contained in this publication. Not legal, tax, financial, or professional advice.…
