Welcome to the start of "The Pen". The full title is, as if I need to explain it, "The pen is mightier than the sword". From now on I will aim to review books on all aspects of the martial arts.

If you like the sound of a book from the review, you will be able to purchase them on-line through Amazon.com. Any books that I have reviewed that are available from Amazon are clearly indicated and linked. Just follow the links, make your order and help keep PMA going.

I will also be reviewing books that are not available from Amazon and in this case I will provide full details in order to allow you to track the book yourselves.

Those that have not currently been reviewed but that are in my library are linked directly to Amazon.
