Oy! It’s the return of...Jew-Jitsu: The Hebrew Hands of Fury!
 
Chiam Mangawicz was a Polish Jew from the port city of Gdansk. In 1841, the young rabbinical student was waylaid by a press gang and put to sea as a cabin boy. Trapped aboard the Orient-bound trading ship, the devoutly observant lad incurred the wrath of the ship’s captain by refusing to slop the deck, serve swill and grog, and be abused down in the bilge on the Sabbath even though his defiance was rewarded with cruel punishments.
--From Jew-Jitsu: The Hebrew Hands of Fury
 
And so began a saga stretching across three continents that lead to the creation of the only faith-based martial art certified Grade-A kosher by the Rabbinical Council of the I.O.C. (International Oy-lympic Committee)!
 
Jew-Jitsu: The Hebrew Hands of Fury is the fully illustrated and critically acclaimed instruction manual (the author’s mother said it was “very nice, very nice”) that reveals the secret history of du oifn fun der mensch, or “the way of the righteous man."
