||7 of 7 people found the following review helpful.| Historically important, generally sound|By E. M. Van Court|This is one on the earlier texts on the use of the small sword, with techniques that are generally recognizable as foil or epee techniques. Yes, there are references to parrying with the empty hand, but the guard, parries, footwork, and attacks are clearly dominant antecedents of the point arms of modern sport fencing.

Monsieur L'Abbat was a French author and a Fencing Master at the Academy of Toulouse in France in the late seventeenth century. He was the author of the first comprehensive study of the art of fencing entitled Questions Sur L'Art En Fait D'Armes, which was first translated into English by Andrew Mahon in 1734 and called, The Art of Fencing, or, The Use of the Small Sword.
