    Any Gracie JJ Brazilian JJ History Book Recommendation?

    I watched a video on YouTube about Carlos Sr. and Helio Gracie and the evolution of both sides of the family. Anyone have a recommendation for a book, preferably not written by a family member or Gracie devotee? All I've come across on Amazon is "Choque" Thanks.

    That’s a good question. Look into George Gracie, I think he’s the bad ass Gracie from the 20’s or 30’s that got left out of the mainstream Gracie history

    Maybe I'll have my wife read it to me. She speaks Spanish but says she can understand most written Portuguese

    From what I understand Helio had like 10 brothers who trained jiu jitsu
