Jinichi Tokeshi, M.D., was born and raised in Okinawa, Japan. After completing his medical studies in Hawai'i, he opened a private practice in Honolulu and began teaching at the John A. Burns School of Medicine, University of Hawai'i, He has attained a yondan in kendo and a sandan in iaido.
I would recommend this handsomely compiled introductory book of Kendo to any readers who are interested in Kendo practice, Japanese swordsmanship, and martial arts in general.-- "Pacific Affairs" An excellent reference source and introduction to Japanese swordsmanship-- "Choice"
