Basic Field Manual FM 21-150.

Very "wrestling" in approach to those situations. A nice addition to any collection of self defense or military manuals.

W.E. Fairbairn’s Scientific Self-Defence, published in 1931 as a slightly modified reprint of Defendu (1926), outlines the brutally effective close-quarters combat program developed during Fairbairn’s renowned service with the Shanghai Municipal Police. Fairbairn’s straightforward techniques for defending against various holds, dealing with assailants armed with guns or knives, applying truly effective holds and throws, using the club and walking stick for self-defense, and other areas of close-in fighting have had an extraordinary influence on the development of the combat arts.

Many people in the traditional martial arts community were harsh critics of Bruce Tegner. This is because Mr. Tegner's approach to self-defense took a more realistic and simple approach to learning self-defense and the martial arts. He always emphasized that learning effective self-defense is not mystical in anyway. This particular book covers all the basic technqiues and self-defense responses to numerous types of attacks, This book shows how to counter punching, kicking, grabs, chokes and other attacks. In conclusion, this book like any other physical skills text in that it has limitations. Using this text in combination with actual training with a competent self-defense instructor will produce the best results.

This book is not designed merely as a defensive project.Actually, there is attack in defense. This attack, growing out of purely defensive tactics, can be applied in many degrees up to killing a person in self defense. There are instances when a person needs to take the defensive as the most convenient means. In other cases an individual may be relegated to the defense, but necessarily must switch to attack...
