Endorsement by Allan Skipp, Director of Coaching, British Fencing Association
In preparing this book, Terence Kingston has combined his considerable skills as a graphic designer with his experience and knowledge as coach and fencer for many years.
He has produced a unique book from which, those who wish to begin fencing with the Epee, will be able to learn the techniques involved, and these are arranged in sections which provide a progressive course of study.
Skills are related to tactical situations within the game and the reader is encouraged to try these in combat at the earliest opportunity.
Each skill is illustrated using the latest computer graphics, and the view through the mask illustrations clearly show movements of the blade.
The book includes fencing techniques which are now common in the modern game; close quarters, flicks, pommelling etc, and these will help the more established Epee fencer.
There have been a number of fencing books published in recent years, and they all suffer from the limitation of graphic illustrations to represent movements of the body and blade.
This book has uniquely overcome this problem, and is to be commended to all those who are interested in fencing with the Epee, possibly the purist form of Olympic fencing.
Epee Combat will be sold singly for £12.95 or as a sets of ten books for clubs and schools £89.95 (to be published June 2000)
