"This catalogue provides thorough descriptions of books and manuscripts on fencing before 1800 from the collection of Wiebe Mokken, honorary member and former chairman of the Royal Dutch Fencing Association (KNAS). It aims to capture fencing as practiced in the Renaissance and early modern period towards the development into a sport. At the same time it serves as a reference work for historical martial artists and fencing researchers, antiquarians, auction houses, and librarians."--Back cover.
