Intertwining tales of the masters with reflections on his own apprenticeship in the samurai's arts, he reveals in their time-honored methods a way of life with profound relevance to modern times. The result is a fascinating, singular autobiography. Lowry captures the sense of wonder and mystery that makes martial arts compelling to so many practitioners. Even those who do not practice martial arts will delight in this unusual coming-of-age story.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Shambhala","offers":[{"title":"Autumn Lightning: The Education of an American Samurai | Dave Lowry | Book | 9781570621154 | Used: Very Good | Religion \u0026 Spirituality 1402900 (temp: 5)","offer_id":48914043895960,"sku":"1402900","price":6.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/51RY3JSEv7L.jpg?v=1776971402","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/autumn-lightning-the-education-of-an-american-samurai","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
