What a journey it has been! I began demonstrating the Chinese Iron Palm Skills in the early Seventies at major tournaments around the country. I simply enjoyed sharing what I knew. As you will read in this book, I was encouraged to write an article about the proper and legitimate methods for training in this art for Inside Kung Fu magazine in 1985. That issue sold out, and what came with it was the biggest demand for more material from me that Inside Kung Fu magazine had ever experienced. I was honored, and I was also soon to discover the vastness of the charlatans and frauds who came running to make a quick buck. It was astonishing. I kept my promise to stay involved. Over the decades that followed, I wrote more articles for the magazines, I published books, produced videos and created the Iron Palm International Organization, which meant traveling all over the U.S. to host annual conferences. In 2018, I hosted my last appearance at the Iron Palm International Iron Palm Conference. I felt it only fitting that I share with my readers all of those magazine articles, which are no longer available anywhere.
