The definitive account of Bruce Lee's extraordinary life and enduring legacy
In Bruce Lee – Fighting Spirit, Bruce Thomas offers a comprehensive look at the life, death, and fighting philosophy of the martial arts legend. Despite facing racial prejudice in America, Lee became the highest-paid movie star of his time through his Hong Kong films. His controversial death at the age of 32 has only added to his James Dean-like appeal.
Thomas delves into Lee's development of jeet kune do, the fighting style that made him the greatest martial artist of the modern era. This updated edition reassesses Lee's skills and examines the lasting impact of his legacy on action films and martial arts. As an icon, Bruce Lee's popularity continues to grow, and this book is a fitting tribute to an extraordinary man whose achievements remain unsurpassed.
