sure thing....

Boxing by Edwin L Haislet 1940 The Ronald Press Company New York

I understand it was republished in the 80's in paperback but I see on Amazon
that this paperback copy is going for almost $50. I bought mine at a library
booksale about 15 years ago for a dime:-)

here is a link that shows the relationship between the Tao of JKD and
Haislets book:

i can't say enough good things about this book. I feel that if you apply
Dempseys methods and theories to the material int his book, you can't go
wrong.
