Secrets of Judo Book

A while back I mentioned that an excellent book on Judo Newaza was TEACH YOURSELF JUDO (its only is about 30% Newaza and 70% throws though) and if you want another really well written book that contains a great deal of information on the subject of throws and ground fighting would be the classic book SECRETS OF JUDO. This book was originally written in 1964 and it still is a relevant book to this day as it is a great resource material that covers a number of different topics and subjects that are not commonly found in judo at all. (There is an interesting illustrated section that covers guard passing in brief) While there are not many Judo books out there that cover Newaza in depth there are a few out there (such as VITAL JUDO) and they offer an interesting perspective that covers the material in a decent amount of depth.
