Book Reviews of Fencing and the Master
Book Review: A complete guide for both master and fencer alike
Summary: 5 Stars
My Hungarian master Laszlo Jakab, a personal friend of Laszlo Szabo, introduced this book to me as "The fencer's Bible". He continued telling me that within its pages were common faults that Masters should look for and how to fix them. Master Szabo has in his book endeavoured to put in to writing his method of teaching. It a very thorough treatment of the subject matter. Within the scope of subjects covered is immense. Ranging from the master's obligations to his pupils, techniques for building the correct fencing mussels, giving individual and group lessons (where to stand, how to give signals etc), a complete tactical system all the way down to the basics of a correct guard stance. My master can not speak highly enough of this book and has integrated many parts of the contents in to his own method of teaching and fencing. I myself feel that even though some of the methods explained are now outdated (e.g. training without masks) the book offers great insight in to fencing at all levels and should you wish to become a good coach this is the only book you will need.
