Scottish Broadsword and British Singlestick Paperback – January 1, 1642

This is far more of a historical book about Scottish Broadsword and British Singlestick. There are very little illustrations and no photographs. But it does give the student some historical perspective which would be difficult (especially for the historic fencing living in America) to find anywhere else.

An excellent book for anyone who enjoys the martial history of the British Isles and any historical martial artists working to recreate the systems of the Broadsword and Singlestick. My group uses the Roworth lessons outlined in the book on a regular basis. Overall, a great resource and a great read.

My son has joined a broadsword fencing club, he loves it! Your book has given him hints and techniques...he really likes it!

Fast Service, well packed, great book! Thanks!I wish all manuals would be like thise one. Contains not only actual lessons but also a wider historical context to put the Scottish Broadsword in perspective. Interesting read and most useful. Comes highly recommended.

A comprehensive guide for all who are interested in historical fencing, scottish martial culture and history. Covers both backgroung and development of styles and gives insight and analysis to both basic and advanced techniques and lessons.
