内容简介

Gailers together two of the most important Scottish works. Donald MacBane's "Expert SwordMan's Companion"--1728--and his entertaining autobiography recounting lessons learned as an exceptionally colorful solider, contrasted with Sir William Hope's "New Method of Fencing"--1708--a "universal" system designed for use not in the salon but on the field of battle. Includes contributions by Paul Wagner Milo Thurston and Paul Macdonald.
