A definite must for anyone interested in good, solid information on the martial arts of the whole world, not just Japan.

Round Earth Publishing: Round Earth is a martial arts book and video seller that carries a lot of hard to find classic martial arts related movies. Of special interest for anyone who sews, they also have hakama patterns so you can try making your own. I also have to recommend Carol Shifflet's books "Ki in Aikido" and "Aikido Exercises For Teaching and Training" are the most interesting books on aikido we've seen.
