The lessons within this volume are based on the contemporary European style used in military schools in France and Italy. With simple instructions and helpful illustrations, Broadsword Fencing and Stick or Quarter-Staff Play is ideal for beginners and young learners alike, and is not to be missed by collectors of vintage sporting literature. Contents include: Broadsword Fencing , The Moulinets , Flank Moulinets , Front Moulinets , Disarm or Undercut Moulinets , The Broadsword Exercise , First Lesson , The Parries , Second Lesson , The Parries , Third Lesson , Fourth Lesson , Fifth Lesson , Sixth Lesson , etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive.
