"You don't have to be a drinker to appreciate the wit and wisdom that James Porco put into Bar-Jutsu: The American Art of Bar Fighting. The author hails from a background in Bujinkan ninjutsu, in which he holds a second degree black belt, but his book is all about the Western ways of throwing down." -Black Belt magazine "Tired of getting your ass kicked in bar fights? Or just curious about how to behave in a hypothetical pub scuffle?

Laugh and learn!" -Brad Sommer, Sommer Entertainment Group "I wish everyone who walked into my bar had a little sensei in their head telling them what to do before a confrontation starts. That's exactly what this book does.
