We expect this book to be about 300 pages long, full color, full graphic design like a game book and lots of content and photos and illustrations and art.
Dr. David Solnit has made an outstanding contribution to our book with his professional editing skills. Dr. Solnit is a linguist focusing on Chinese dialects giving him the perfect skills to tackle the martial terminology and create excellent footnotes on pronunciation and meaning. Dr. Solnit has also created a wonderful glossary with notes on pronunciation and meaning and an index. All of these will certainly be loved by our readers! I know I do. I am really delighted to have his valuable assistance on this project. In think bringing in the aspects of language and culture that surround the martial content helps everyone complete their understand of the lore of Northern Shaolin. Thank you David!
Rachel has written some more beautiful calligraphy to enhance this book. Hopefully, we’ll be able to share some of the brush work soon!
