Overview

In 1968, Dave Lowry set out on an unusual apprenticeship: He was introduce to the techniques of the Shinkage-ryu, one of Japan's oldest schools of classical swordsmanship. Persimmon Wind is a vivid account of the journey of a martial artist, or bugeisha, and one that is, in the end, bittersweet. This is Dave's own account of his continuing growth as he walks along the Way of the bugeisha, another trail that leads to becoming a true human being.
