These skills were supplemented with techniques for grappling, wrestling, kicking, and throwing the opponent, as well as disarming him by seizing his weapon. Every attack contained a defense and every defense a counter-attack. Talhoffer reveals the techniques for wrestling, unarmored fighting with the long sword, pole-axe, dagger, sword and buckler, and mounted combat.<\/p>\n<p>This unparalleled guide to medieval combat, illustrated with 268 contemporary images, provides a glimpse of real people fighting with skill, sophistication, and ruthlessness. This is one of the most popular and influential manuals of its kind.    <\/p>\n<p> Publisher                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 Greenhill Books (February 28, 2019) <br \/> Language                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 English <br \/> Paperback                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 320 pages <br \/> ISBN-10                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 178438285X <br \/> ISBN-13                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 978-1784382858 <br \/> Item Weight                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 2.31 pounds <br \/> Dimensions                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 9.25 x 1 x 6 inches <\/p>\n<div id=\"product-summary\" data-hook=\"cr-insights-widget-summary\" class=\"a-section a-spacing-none\">\n<div class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-spacing-top-medium\">\n<h3 class=\"a-size-base-plus a-color-base a-text-bold\">Customers say<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"a-spacing-small\"><span>Customers find the book worthwhile for research and a wonderful reference for anyone interested in medieval combat.
