Publisher's summary
NO RULES. NO PROBLEM.
Bruce Lee remains the gold standard that all martial artists are compared to. But could he actually fight? World Champions in karate competition have gone on record to point out that he never once competed in tournaments. Were his martial abilities merely a trick of the camera?
For the first time ever, Bruce Lee authority and bestselling author John Little takes a hard look at Bruce Lee's real-life fights to definitively answer these questions with over thirty years of research that took him thousands of miles. Little has tracked down over thirty witnesses to the real fights of Bruce Lee as well as those who were present at his many sparring sessions (in which he was never defeated) against the very best martial artists in the world.
From the mean streets of Hong Kong, to challenge matches in Seattle and Oakland, to the sets of his iconic films where he was challenged repeatedly, this is the incredible real-life fighting record of the man known as the "Little Dragon," who may well have been the greatest fighter of the twentieth century.

Story
The world’s greatest bodybuilder. The world’s highest-paid movie star. The leader of the world’s sixth-largest economy. That these are the same person sounds like the setup to a joke, but this is no joke. This is Arnold Schwarzenegger. And this did not happen by accident. Arnold’s stratospheric success happened as part of a process. As the result of clear vision, big thinking, hard work, direct communication, resilient problem-solving, open-minded curiosity, and a commitment to giving back. All of it guided by the one lesson Arnold’s father hammered into him above all: be useful.

The first authoritative biography of film legend Bruce Lee, who made martial arts a global phenomenon, bridged the divide between Eastern and Western cultures, and smashed long-held stereotypes of Asians and Asian Americans. Forty-five years after Bruce Lee’s sudden death at age 32, journalist and best-selling author Matthew Polly has written the definitive account of Lee’s life. It’s also one of the only accounts; incredibly, there has never been an authoritative biography of Lee.

In Wildlife Wars, Terry Grosz serves up fascinating stories - alternately hair-raising, hilarious, and heart-wrenching - from his 30-year struggle to protect wildlife in America. A natural storyteller, Grosz writes about the remarkable characters he met - on both sides of the law - as he matched wits with elk poachers, salmon snaggers, commercial-market duck hunters, and a host of other law-breakers. Best of all, though, these stories are so remarkably entertaining you won't want to put them down.

In the most famous scandal of sports history, eight Chicago White Sox players - including Shoeless Joe Jackson - agreed to throw the 1919 World Series to the Cincinnati Reds in exchange for the promise of $20,000 each from gamblers reportedly working for New York mobster Arnold Rothstein. Heavily favored, Chicago lost the Series five games to three. Although rumors of a fix flew while the series was being played, they were largely disregarded by players and the public at large.

When Ball Four was published in 1970, it created a firestorm. Bouton was called a Judas, a Benedict Arnold and a “social leper” for having violated the “sanctity of the clubhouse.” Baseball commissioner Bowie Kuhn tried to force Bouton to sign a statement saying the book wasn’t true. Ballplayers, most of whom hadn’t read it, denounced the book. It was even banned by a few libraries. Almost everyone else, however, loved Ball Four.

The real insight to Bruce Lee’s transformation from street fighter to the G.O.A.T. Martial Artist.
Great insight to the legacy of Bruce Lee. As a Martial Artist myself of 54 years he was a great inspiration to my training. The stories of his fights put to rest that he wasn’t a real fighter!

Bruce Lee was “one of them ones!”
This book was very necessary! It’s been 50 years since The Dragon passed away, and more myth has clouded his legacy than truth. Myth and doubt are the first things you hear when Bruce’s name is mentioned. And John Little destroyed every single negative connotation about Bruce Lees abilities with this book. “He was just an actor” “He really couldn’t fight” are the two most ridiculous statements when it comes to the legacy of Bruce Lee. Hearing testimonies from Bruces teachers, family, friends and students was all I needed to hear. They validated everything I believed about the life and legacy of Bruce Lee. To those that know, and understand the truth, we know that he was special. Bruce studied, and worked hard at becoming the best martial artist he could. He also helped anyone that was willing work and become the best they could be. Whether it was martial arts champions, professional athletes, or the average man or woman, looking to reach higher levels, he helped them develop. Bruce Lee was a living example of “lead by example”. From start to finish, this book helped me understand why and how Bruce Lee became who he became. The “what could have been” excerpts from the book were the most inspiring. The opportunities he could have had, had he survived the cerebral edema on July 20th, 1973, brought tears to my eyes. He was almost there. He almost reached his Ultimate Chief Aim. Also, hearing the praise he got from legends people revere made me proud. It made me proud to be a Bruce Lee fan! Bruce Lee proved his doubters wrong when he was alive. John Little proved the Bruce Lee doubters wrong with this book. 10/10 I would highly recommend! Bruce Lee was truly “one of them ones!” Thank you Mr. John Little for everything you have done to preserve the life, the teachings ,and the legacy of the legendary Bruce Lee! LONG LIVE THE LEGACY AND SPIRIT OF BRUCE LEE!
“Walk On.”

Hearing the Life vs the Myth of Bruce Lee is presented here.
Bravo Mr. John Little on your research. I truly enjoyed your book. Forward it to my Tai Chi teacher.

If you thought you knew Bruce Lee, think again…
This book was amazing. It contains so much incredible insight and facts into Bruce Lee that I already want to buy it as a book now and read it.
