Specificatii
In the spring of 1959, eighteen-year-old Bruce Lee returned to San
Francisco, the city of his birth, and quickly inserted himself into
the West Coast's fledgling martial arts culture. Even though Asian
fighting styles were widely unknown to mainstream America, Bruce
encountered a robust fight culture in a San Francisco Bay area that
was populated with talented and trailblazing practitioners such as
Lau Bun, Chinatown's aging kung fu patriarch; Wally Jay, the
innovative Hawaiian jujitsu master; and James Lee, the no-nonsense
Oakland street fighter. Regarded by some as a brash loudmouth and
by others as a dynamic visionary, Bruce spent his first few years
back in America advocating a more modern approach to the martial
arts and showing little regard for the damaged egos left in his
wake. In the Chinese calendar, 1964 was the Year of the Green
Dragon. It would be a challenging and eventful year for Bruce. He
would broadcast his dissenting view before the first great
international martial arts gathering and then defend it by facing
down Chinatown's young ace kung fu practitioner in a legendary
behind-closed-doors high noon-style showdown. The Year of the Green
Dragon saw the dawn of martial arts in America and the rise of an
icon. Drawing on more than one hundred original interviews and an
eclectic array of sources, Striking Distance is an engrossing
narrative chronicling San Francisco Bay's pioneering martial arts
scene as it thrived in the early 1960s and offers an in-depth look
at a widely unknown chapter of Bruce Lee's iconic life.
