Excerpt:Senior club appearances and goalscounted for the domestic league only.* Appearances (Goals) Joshua Walter "Paddy" Sloan (born 30 April 1920 in Lurgan, County Armagh; died January 1993) was an Irish footballer and manager. His widely travelled career took Sloan to twenty different clubs in five different countries, including Northern Ireland, England, Italy, Malta and Australia. As a player, his clubs included Manchester United, Arsenal and Milan. He was a dual Irish international footballer, playing for both Ireland teams the IFA XI and the FAI XI. Sloan pioneered the way for the likes of Liam Brady and Robbie Keane by becoming the first Irishman to play in Serie A. After initially playing for his local Lurgan team, Glenavon as a youth, Sloan signed for Manchester United in September 1937. However, he failed to break into the United first team and on 24 May 1939, at the age of 19, he was transferred to Tranmere Rovers for a fee of £500. During the Second World War, Sloan would return to United as a guest player. Between 1943 and 1945, he made three wartime league appearances and scored one goal for United. In May 1945, Sloan also played for United in both legs of the League North Cup final against Bolton Wanderers. However, United lost the final 3-2 on aggregate. After signing for Tranmere Rovers, Sloan made his debut for the club against Rotherham United on 26 August 1939. However, shortly afterwards, the Second World War broke out and Sloan joined the RAF.

Very Good Book - A must have for any practicing martial artist.
I have been in martial arts for many years. Finding a user friendly comprehensive volumn that literally takes you from a-z through forms, some applicable self-defense moves as they relate to those forms and still leads you the next level is a treasure to be discovered. What impressed me is the diagramming. It may have helped that I conceptualize the way the author does and his communication style matches my own. I do not have any negatives other than I wish it had the basic motions for Tang Soo Do covered in it. I had been doing my own hard copy diagramming because the school I was taught in had a great Teacher, Master J. D. Lawler. We did not use manuals. He could show us something new everyday and we could never grasp it all. He was that amazing. This book helped shed light on some of the teaching I received from Master Lawler. I hope the Black Belt Vol 2 is just as good.

In's & Out's of Tang Soo Do
The book was well written, illustrations are clear & concise for the student who has had hands on training. Is a good reference book for learning forms & techniques, also for the advanced student to reference. This book is not written to teach without the assistance of a certified instructor but to aid that student.

Finally a superb manual
This book i a very good manual for learning Tang Soo Do. It gives an understanding of both theory and the practical applications, organized in belt by belt levels describing the requiremnts for each level. One of the greates things in this book (which I have not seen in any other Taekwondo or Tang Soo Do book) is the applications or rationale behind each of the patterns for each belt level.

This book I will really reccomend for all practionairs of Tang Soo Do specially, but also for those practicing Tae Kwon Do (WTF style).

Great Book on Tang So Do
I have been taking one form or other of Martial Arts most of my life. This book is a great resource for any Tang So Do student. Although many of the techniques are not practiced in my dojang, or the patterns are slightly different, I found this book to be interesting and informative. Your not going to finnish reading this book and be able to defend yourself but with a membership to a dojang and daily practice this book will definately help you understand why you practice the forms and basic movements.

A Must Have Addition To Any Tang Soo Do Collection
I enjoyed the Complete Tang Soo Do Manual by GM Ho Sik Pak very much, I thought the layout of the forms was very well done, I especially liked the intermediate photos to help see how the framing was done,and the interpretations for the applications of the forms was very nicely done as well, I can honestly recommend this book to anyone who practices Tang Soo Do ...

Great Book - 300 pages and heavily illustrated
This book is a great learning aid for anyone in the martial arts, specially in tang soo do, tae kwon do, karate, okinawan karate, WTF and ITF. It's heavily illustrated and printed on glossy paper.

If you already have volume 1 you need this book as well. If you don't (since volume 1 is temporarily out of print) you can definitely learn a lot more from this title as it includes advanced techniques, weapons and so much more.
