Sir Gusztáv Arlow's Sabre Fencing: Austro-Hungarian Sabre Series, vol. 3 - Paperback

by Annamária Kovacs (Translator), Russ Mitchell (Author)

The Birth of Italo-Hungarian Fencing!
Gusztáv Arlow's work represents perhaps the point where the Hungarian public sees a well-known, well-established, and well-respected fencer come forward to discuss the merits of the "Italian," that is to say, Radaellian, fencing method, while simultaneously discussing its integration with elements of Hungarian sabre fencing. Arlow, previously an adherent to the so-called "High Tierce" system, lays out the case for "Italian" fencing in this translated manual, which contains extensive commentary on the art of fencing. A must-have for historical fencers and those interested in the birth of the modern Italo-Hungarian school.
