A modern training manual for the 17th century rapier, lavishly illustrated with over 400 photographs, the "Duellist's Companion" is a complete training system for rapier, the Queen of Weapons. Guy Windsor, author of the popular longsword text "The Swordsmans' Companion", has triumphed in this work, which guides the beginner through the rapier, based on the world of Capo Ferro's 1610 masterpiece, "Gran Simulacro". Italian rapier dominated Europe from the 17th to 19th centuries. This book demonstrates convincingly why it was so successful.
