That is awesome!
One thing I think is worth mentioning:
"During the late 1990’s sifu Gee contributed the chapter on Red Boat Wing Chun to the book written by Robert Chu , Y. Wu and Rene Ritchie called “Complete Wing Chun”. If was from this experience that Master Benny Meng, curator of the Ving Tsun Museum, first heard of sifu Gee and Hung Fa Yi wing chun. Master Meng made several trips to San Francisco to communicate with sifu Gee and to find out more information. After his second trip he asked sifu Gee if he could become his personal disciple. It was at this turning point that sifu Gee decided to share his art with the world.
Sifu Gee along with Master Meng and Sifu Richard Lowenhagen (retired Col. US Air Force) contributed to the successful publication of the martial art book “Mastering Kung Fu”. We anticipate that this will be the first of a series of publications on this fighting system."

Great Benefit for the Neophyte Martial Artists, February 23, 2004
Reviewer: Ruben Daniel Duran from Houston,TX USA
As a complete neophyte to the martial arts world and Wing Chun Kung Fu I found the reading of this book to be pure nectar and very enlivening. The body of knowledge found in this book is vast and intricate, however, the authors present this to us in a direct and systematic way making this knowledge very comprehensible. This book was highly recommended to me and I forward that recommendation to anyone who wants a complete, authoritative introduction to martial arts and Wing Chun Kung Fu.

That's a good review. It's unbiased (aka not associated with the HFY) which lends credibility.
