Product Details

Product Description

From School Library Journal

Grade 5 Up-This biography is packed with information on Lee, his films, his family, and his legacy. It includes both the usual movie stills of Lee in action and rarer, more revealing photos in color and in black and white of him with his siblings, in his parents' home, and in a dance contest (he was a cha-cha champion in Hong Kong). Tagliaferro introduces Lee's daughter, whom many writers ignore in favor of her late brother, Brandon. The author gets much of her information from interviews with the people who knew Lee best (including his wife), and the quotes she incorporates give the book an added personal dimension. As with many biographies of larger-than-life characters, there seems to be some exaggeration, as when the author claims that Lee avoided punches "seconds" before they reached him. But all in all, this is a solid offering, with tidbits of unusual information and contacts for scholarships in Lee's name.

New interviews with Bruce's wife, author of "Enter The Dragon" and several of his original students. Lots of pictures. Some I'd never seen before. Solid information.

This review is from: Bruce Lee (Paperback)
This book covers only the basics. Phots were not verified well there is even a photo labeled as Bruce Lee but it's actually another actor. There are many more good books out there.

This review is from: Bruce Lee (Paperback)
Great book. A very comprehensive look at his life, with some material and pictures I've never seen before. We,ll designed, and obviously well researched. Equally good for newcomers or die-hard fans.
