Swordsmen of the British Empire.

I just picked up a copy of this one, based on the quoted ad:

Dear Schola Forum members,
Thanks for your continued support.

Recently the forum admin has written an extensive introduction for
D.A.Kinsley's new book 'Swordsmen of the British Empire'. This is a unique
and massive collection of first-hand British sources describing
hand-to-hand fighting, from the 17th to the early 20th century. These are
the primary sources for how the arts we study were actually used in
conflict. This corpus of work covers most of the important known English
language accounts of close combat from c.1600-c.1900 and as such should be
of interest to anyone involved with HEMA or military history. Themes
covered include the ongoing cut vs. thrust debate, the reality of the
'afterblow' and the relative merits of various types of weapon.

Please help support this project by ordering a copy of D.A.Kinsley's book
today - the PDF version is a mere £4.27. If you've bought a previous
edition you will find a lot of new material in this and this will be the
final definitive version. It will not stay in print for very long unless
people buy it.

And I have an earlier version of it as well. The book contains 630 pages of swordswinging galore, Bajonet charges,  contemporary pictures and this and thats.  Highly reccomended by a pleased reader with no bone in the effort other than spending the dosh to procure them and thinking that it someone on here may be interested in it as well. There should be scenarios a plenty for skirmisher in there, as well.
