This book dispels the many myths and misconceptions about swords and swordsmanship that swashbuckler films like The Three Musketeers have generated. This scholarly, entertaining guide is the most thorough work on historical European swordsmanship ever undertaken. It serves as both a general reference and an instructional guide for advanced and beginning sword enthusiasts, students of military history and martial artists.
But this is a user's guide as well. To write this book the author combined exhaustive research with hands on practice in fencing, contact weapon sparring and training with historically accurate replicas. He then illustrated the text with more than 100 pages of drawings depicting authentic Renaissance sword fighting techniques and how you can use them today.
