Crouching Tiger

More about the book

Loren W. Christensen - soldier, policeman, martial artist - has called upon his warrior spirit in a wide range of violent encounters: grueling karate and jujitsu matches, brutal barroom brawls and street fights as a military policeman in Saigon, Vietnam, shootings, riots, and gang warfare as a police officer in Portland, Oregon, and fights in the mean streets.In Crouching Tiger: Taming the Warrior Within author and martial artist Loren W. Christensen shares stories of hand to hand combat and self-defense from the mean streets and back alleys he's worked as an MP and cop for decades. This is a rare look at how martial arts can be used in self-defense and defense of the law, narrated by someone who has been there and lived to tell about it.
