Keinosuke Enoeda Tiger of Shotokan Karate is a full pictorial and biographical account of the life and times of karate legend Master Keinosuke Enoeda, 9th Dan, of the Japan Karate Association (JKA). Includes contributions from some of the world's top instructors (including Stan Schmidt and Yoshinobu Ohta) as well as hundreds of fantastic pictures never seen before.

Enoeda was respected not just by followers and supporters of Shotokan Karate, but by all the other leaders of various martial arts throughout the world. Even the great Sumo team from Japan, upon visiting London, sought out the dojo of Master Enoeda for a visit.

Written by Rod Butler, a 30-year student of Enoeda and one of his deputy instructors in London. This book is a loving tribute to a sadly-departed Shotokan karate master.
