Description
In the forty years since his death, Fujita Seiko has been a man of mystery, rumor and conjecture. Little of substance existed to bring the facts of his career to life, yet all agree that he made his mark by claiming to he the ''last ninja.''
Now, the author Phillip T. Hevener brings Fujita's career to life. Here, for the first time, you will learn of Fujita's early training, his role during World War II, and the high regard with which his contemporaries held his abilities and accomplishments. Ultimately, you will learn of the fate of his martial arts legacy, including his mysterious and controversial Wadaha Kogaryu ninjutsu.
The author, Phillip T Hevener, has more than 30 years of training in the martial arts, including 14 years in the ninjutsu related arts. Mr. Hevener holds a Shidoshi license from Dr. Masaaki Hatsumi, the Grandrnaster of the Bujinkan Dojo, and was exposed to the practice of Satto-ryu Kempo while researching this project. Professionally, he is an executive with a major international bank. Mr. Hevener is also an avid outdoorsman who recently climbed Mount Roraima and Mount Kilimanjaro.
