I think there were a few people on the forum looking for books on eagle claw, fut ga, praying mantis, etc.

I've gotten ahold of a bunch of old kung fu books to sell, but most are in Chinese. Like most books from China, they are printed on pretty cheap paper.

If you're interested, place a request here, and I'll try and fill it for you. I can also be reached by the email address in my profile.

I have the three books by Lau Fat Man; Shaolin Eagle Claw, 100 Postures of Hero Style, and Overview of Martial Arts.

So far nothing in English, and no Bak Mei books, but I'll keep looking.

So there are more book fanatics here (like myself!). Perhaps we can have style specific topics to see which books people have on certain styles. That way we would know what's out there and what to look for. For example by posting scans of the book covers. (OK, I still have to find out how to do that) But I know it would be very helpfull on my personal quest for books on pak mei pai (white eyebrow) and eagle claw.
