Hello everyone, does anybody know where I can buy the book from Nakamura Tenshin Sensei "Kendo Nito Ryu no waza to riron" (aka Musashi no ken)?
e-bogu told me it is out of stock and discontinued. Budo videos sell it for 4 times its price. Do you know any other place where I can buy this book?
Thank you

The book is from Sasaki Hirotsugu Sensei, I am sorry for the mistake.

Here you go:
On Amazon.co.jp. (http://www.amazon.co.jp/%E6%AD%A6%E8%94%B5%E3%81%AE%E5%89%A3%E2%80%95%E5%8 9%A3%E9%81%93%E4%BA%8C%E5%88%80%E6%B5%81%E3%81%AE% E6%8A%80%E3%81%A8%E7%90%86%E8%AB%96-%E5%89%A3%E9%81%93%E6%97%A5%E6%9C%AC-%E4%BD%90%E3%80%85%E6%9C%A8-%E5%8D%9A%E5%97%A3/dp/4789920828/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1296385228&sr=1-2)
It is a bit pricey, and there are only used copies available.
Just in case you need it, the author's name in Japanese: 佐々木 博嗣
And the Japanese title: 武蔵の剣―剣道二刀流の技と理論 (剣道日本) [単行本]
Even if your pc doesn't have Japanese fonts installed, you can copy and paste that into a browser and it will get you where you want to go.

Thanks, OMG it is almost 200 hundred dollar just for a book!
That is really expensive for my bucket :(

Here you go, it's sorta ten times lower than that Amazon link.
It's amazing what Google + Rikaichan + those awesome folks at Musashikai can get you.
Now, you'll need to somehow make sense of all the Japanese there. If you have even a slight touch with the language, Rikaichan can answer all your problems. If not, you can use Google Translate and pray.

There's a crying need for a well written book on Nito in English. A serious gap in the market.
