Book Reviews of The Bruce Lee Story
Book Review: Bruce Lee story is really good!
Summary: 5 Stars
The Bruce Lee story is really good! Linda Lee's book about her husband, the legendary Bruce Lee is a great biographical story! Linda Lee shares her private moments and her thoughts about the man she loved so much! Bruce Lee is the Chinese-American who would eventually become the greatest Martial Artist of all time! The photos from Linda Lee's personal collection are great! Bruce Lee is at his best when pictured on the set of his movies, like the Big Boss, Fist of Fury, Way of the Dragon, Game of Death, and Enter the Dragon! I do recommend this book because Linda lee is the only person who knew Bruce lee better than anyone because she was his wife! their is no information on the death of Brandon Lee because this book was published in 1989. A+Book Review: Fascinating!
Summary: 5 Stars
Bruce Lee was an "original" no doubt..He was an innovative martial artist who created an eclectic style of Gung Fu called Jeet Kune Do, an assimilation of many fighting styles...Bruce didn't believe in systems..he always believed that if you could use something to achieve a result use it! Bruce had many followers and "famous" students..such as Steve McQueen, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Chuck Norris, Joe Lewis, Mike Stone, James Coburn and many others...Bruce would be the first to admit that he was first and foremost a martial artist...He used the movies to bring his "art" to the masses and what an impact he made! His films today are quintessential examples of what a martial arts film should be! This book by his wife Linda Lee is a beautifully written biography that offers worlds of insight into who Bruce Lee was as a person..Linda writes lovingly of their relationship and brings a history of Bruce from a baby to his death at the too young age of 32 to you..Bruce lived his life to the fullest and was not only a great martial artist but a very profound philosopher as well...This is a wonderful book and highly recommended, not only to fans of Bruce but to anyone seeking inspiration in their lives....Book Review: Great for Bruce Lee fans

This was a gift for my son-in-law who is a huge Bruce Lee fan as well as a martial arts student and he couldn't put this book down.Book Review: Great primer on Bruce Lee
Summary: 4 Stars
I wish this book could have been longer and more in-depth, but I still enjoyed it immensely, primarily for the countless pictures from the Lee family albums. Fans who are hungry for sordid details about Lee's mysterious death may be disappointed, as this was not meant to be a controversial or sensationalistic book. It's simply Linda Lee's tribute to her late husband, a man who was extraordinarily gifted in disciplines of both the body and mind. That, in and of itself, makes this a worthwhile read.Book Review: It's okay
Summary: 3 Stars
I was surprised at how poor a quality the actual book was. It's large, but the paper that it was printed on just made me think how cheap it was.
The content of the book was alright. It's a nice short read, but there are parts that are kind of slow.
