Top 3 Bruce Lee Books Of ALL Time.
I’ve been a fan of Bruce Lee since 1984. I’ve bought pretty much every book in English on the Little Dragon.
Here is my list of the top 3 Bruce Lee books of all time.
Number 1
Bruce Lee: A Life by Matthew Polly.
This is without doubt the best written and researched book on the life of Bruce Lee. I’ve read every biography released before it and even I learned new things about Bruce. Especially related to his school days. I also have Bruce Lee: A Life on Audible which I enjoy, only problem I have with it is that use the mandarin pronunciation of Lee Siu-lung which I don’t understand because Bruce only spoke Cantonese. Bruce even states this fact in his Pierre Berton interview which ironically is called ‘Mandarin Superstar’. Pick up the hardback book if you can afford it. The paperback version
Please check out Matthew Polly other books on Amazon which are certainly worth a read
American Shaolin: One Man’s Quest to Become a Kungfu Master
and
Tapped Out: Rear Naked Chokes, the Octagon, and the Last Emperor: An Odyssey in Mixed Martial Arts

Number 3
Bruce Lee’s Fighting Methods: The Complete Edition by Bruce Lee & M. Uyehara
Originally compiled as a four-volume series, this revised edition breathes new life into a classic work with digitally-enhanced photography of jeet kune do founder Bruce Lee in his prime, a new chapter by former Lee student Ted Wong, and an introduction by Shannon Lee. This renowned compendium once again reclaims its place as an integral part of the Lee canon and a necessary addition for collectors and martial arts enthusiasts alike.
