Much of the materials used for these volumes were from Bruce Lee's own notes and writings made available by Bruce Lee's widow Linda Lee Cadwell. Lee had compiled many volumes worth of materials during his convalescence after he suffered a back injury during one of his practice sessions in 1970. Some of these materials were published in the early 1970's as The Tao of Jeet Kune Do. During the late 1990's this material was revisited and compiled into five core texts and various other Bruce Lee biographies. These volumes are a combination of Lee's original materials along interviews and conversations with many of Bruce Lee's students, friends, family members, and fellow actors. This series is published by the "Charles E. Tuttle Co., Inc.
