A fechtbuch, or fencing book, is a specific type of German medieval literature in which fencing masters wrote down instructions on how to conduct various types of combat. Dozens of fencing books have survived, giving us an extraordinary insight into the mentality and customs not only of knights, but also of civilians who practiced fencing to prepare themselves for hard times or to strengthen their body and mind. The books in our offer contain not only translations of these works, but also their interpretation or modern didactics, thanks to which you can understand fencing in its entirety. All of our books are printed on premium paper, in color, and contain dozens of gorgeous illustrations.
