Edited by All Japan Kendo Federation Publisher: All Japan Kendo Federation Published: 2003 Pages: 413p The book was kept in a cardboard case, which has age-related stains and dirt. The outside of the book also has some stains, but the inside seems to be in relatively good condition. This book was on the bookshelf of my kendo-practicing father. I don't know the details, but if anyone is interested... Please feel free to comment if you have any questions.
