Media Reviews
Foil Fencing: Skills, Strategies, & Training Methods is an utterly essential volume for any fencer, whether beginner, intermediate, or advanced, and is likewise essential for any coach looking to deepen their practices with their students. -- Joseph Sale, The Sword Magazine * The Sword Magazine *
I would recommend this book to beginner fencers and beginner coaches as an excellent starting point; and to advanced fencers and coaches that are looking for a refresher to better prepare for competitions. This book is an enjoyable and instructive addition to the fencing catalogue and earns a place in my fencing library. I have no hesitation in recommending ‘Foil Fencing. Skills, Strategies and Training Methods’ to all who love fencing. -- Prof Peter Northam, President, British Academy of Fencing * British Academy of Fencing *
