Synopsis "Sabre & Foil: Two Instructional Accounts on Fighting with Swords Lessons in Sabre, Singlestick, Sabre & Bayonet or, How to Use a Cut "

Two useful guides for fighting with the arme blancheThis unique Leonaur edition brings together two useful instruction manuals on fighting with edge and pointed blade weapons. The first authoritative guide includes a foundation guide, for the practice of sabre and singlestick before elaborating on fighting techniques. Usefully, Waites' work also deals with combats between protagonists armed respectively with sabres and with firearm mounted bayonets. This is particularly useful in cavalry versus infantry scenarios as well as for 'officer to infantryman' encounters during engagements on foot. This manual also includes rules for duelling which have been translated from the French works of Comte de Chateauvillard. The second book in this volume, by Chapman, deals with the foil and the art of fencing, making it particular useful for those interested in combat during periods of history where the point of the weapon was employed rather than the edge of the sword. All the texts are accompanied by numerous illustrations which will be of particular assistance to illustrators, military modellers, military re-enactors, museums and theatre and film companies.Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.
