Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. This remarkable nineteenth-century manual of self defense by a renowned swordsman will appeal to fencers and martial artists as well as enthusiasts of Victorian-era culture, steampunk, and American history.This 19th-century self-defense manual-written by a master swordsman-will appeal to fencers and martial artists as well as fans of Victorian-era culture, steampunk, and American historyColonel Thomas Hoyer Monstery was a master swordsman who participated in more than fifty duels, fought under twelve flags, battled gangsters, and was constantly involved in the great conflicts and upheavals of his time. In the 1870s, he began writing his magnum opus-a series of newspaper articles that are now collected here for the first time in Self-Defense for Gentleman and Ladies.In this book, Colonel Monstery presents a unique look into the Victorian-era fighting world. He describes styles such as British "purring" (shin-kicking), Welsh jump-kicking, and American rough-and-tumble fighting, in addition to providing illustrated instruction in the art of gentlemanly self-defense with a cane, staff, or one's bare hands. Fifty rare drawings and photographs from the period illuminate Monstery's world, while an extensive glossary of terms and an introductory biography of Colonel Monstery-including fascinating details of his many duels as well as his groundbreaking devotion to teaching fencing and self-defense skills to women-update his text to make it accessible and useful to gentlemen and ladies of any era.ContentsColonel Thomas Hoyer Monstery- The Unknown American Martial Arts MasterI.
