An 1895 revision of the standard instruction booklet for swordsmanship in the British army. The system of swordsmanship followed is that method developed by the maestro Il Cavaliere Ferdinando Masiello of Florence; and there are line drawing illustrations showing not just the position of the body, but the movement of the muscles and joints in the various exercises depicted.
