## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    An excellent beginner's manual
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2009*

This book is an invaluable resource for the beginning fencer or the intermediate looking to improve their game. It focuses heavily on building basic muscles, techniques, and mindsets, with useful pictures both of period plates and modern photographs.I fence with rapier in the Italian style in my local chapter of the Society for Creative Anachronism, and have found this book an excellent supplement to our weekly fencing lesson. If you learn better by reading than by doing, I recommend this book highly. Windsor does seem to assume that his reader has 12 hours a day to do exercises and a full-size, fully-equipped fencing salle to practice in, but taken with a grain of salt, his fanaticism is helpful, rather than hurtful. ;)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    A Solid Resource
  

*by M***N on Reviewed in the United States on April 13, 2009*

As someone who enjoys historical weaponry, I found Windsor's book to be of particular use, and his update and translation into a modern day training guide of Ferro's work is wonderful.  The descriptions of techniques are easy to follow, and the illustrations are both plentiful and helpful.  All in all, I would definitely recommend this book to any enthusiast out there.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Excellent book
  

*by I***P on Reviewed in the United States on April 23, 2014*

Excellent book, very good in its presentation and the logical order in which the study of the rapier is introduced.  The exercises to develop skills specific to the rapier are also excellent and of use to anyone who teaches medieval swordsmanship.
