For any important individual studying the three- hundred and seventy- five or so martial art systems still in use today, this biography is the highly anticipated historical account and reference book to date on Grandmaster Bill Lasiter. The journey takes you from the early origins of this seven- hundred year old martial art style of historical China, with stops discussing about Jimmy Haw Woo, the first man to introduce Kung Fu San Soo to America, to the life experiences, struggles, and modifications Mr. Woo's student Bill Lasiter made to this incredible "Art" form. The Chin Family's five generation's version of San Soo originating from the monks of the original Kwan Yin Monastery. Examine Bill's own life which was one set up around living with different family members under poverty; his military experience while stationed in Japan; his years studying under his mentor, Jimmy H. Woo, and his infatuation with perfecting San Soo at his studio/mo- gwoon once located in Ontario, California. Discover what made him so well respected in the industry by various martial art instructors and his five- thousand, plus, students. Get to know his equally placed and caring nature towards students with physical and non- physical health problems. Understand why he was interviewed so many times by the staff of Inside Kung Fu Magazine. This work also contains some extra, never leased to the public, information on Ed Parker and Bruce Lee.
