DOUBLEDAY

A STORY OF UNTOLD PROPORTIONS Facing an uncertain future in his earliest days as a frail child struggling with illness and disability, Gary Alexander would rise to the heights of the martial arts industry, driven by the sheer force of his will to overcome any challenge that lay before him, and in the process live a life of action, adventure and danger that could easily be transformed into an epic Hollywood film, or for that matter, a book! A pioneer from a by-gone era, Alexander blazed a trail that helped to set the stage for the martial arts' entry into American popular culture, and in his newly published autobiography tells you the story of his remarkable life first-hand, in the no-holds barred, blood and guts, straight-shooter style that one would expect from this rugged United States Marine. Bursting at the seams with previously untold stories and historic photographs, in addition to the well-known tales that are the stuff of legend, "Trail Blazer 1" is essential reading for those who want the inside scoop on the man whose ambition and exploits strove to establish the martial arts in postwar America and served to inspire the later generations of martial artists who trained hard to follow in his footsteps. However, let the reader beware, because if you also intend to use Alexander's life story as a "how-to guide" to become one of the toughest fighters on the planet, you better make sure your combat boots are spit-shined, your knuckles are solid enough to break bricks and bones, and your .45 is locked and loaded. And if you think you can muster all of that, then maybe, you might have what it takes to ride shotgun with the man that Black Belt Magazine has referred to as "the John Wayne of the martial arts" A cover to cover read of Gary Alexander's book will still allow you to strap into that shotgun seat for the ride of your life - albeit vicariously, and more importantly safely, all from the comfort of your armchair.
