Nick Hurst was working in London when he threw in his job in advertising to train for four years in Malaysia and China with a kung fu grandmaster, Sugong. This is a mix of Nick's experiences in South-East Asia and the story of Sugong's extraordinary life. Initiated into kung fu by an opium-addicted master, Sugong was expelled from school, kidnapped and nearly killed in a family feud. All by the age of sixteen. His story spanned fascinating periods of history of four Asian countries, while the origins of Shaolin kung fu are explored in context.
