Book excerpt: Dieses historische Buch kann zahlreiche Tippfehler und fehlende Textpassagen aufweisen. Kaufer konnen in der Regel eine kostenlose eingescannte Kopie des originalen Buches vom Verleger herunterladen (ohne Tippfehler). Ohne Indizes. Nicht dargestellt. 1897 edition. Auszug: ... aims vicious blows with his toes at the shinbone of the enemy, in the hope of inducing him through pain or faintnessto yield the day. Another notable peculiarity of the West-country style is that the hold is altogether artificial. Each man wears a short strong jacket made of untearable material, and of this his adversary gets a hold as best he can, endeavouring usually to seize with one hand the back of the jacket behind the shoulder and with the other the sleeve or arm of it. School-boys in these two counties used to find the ordinary cloth school jacket well fitted for purposes of wrestling; the tailors of Exeter and Plymouth had little chance of using 'shoddy for their juvenile customers without being speedily discovered. The Cumberland and Westmoreland style is so fully treated later on that details need not be given here. 'Loose wrestling, ' sometimes called the 'Catch as catch can' style, requires no elaborate placing of the men in position, and no special formality in catching hold. Kicking and even striking with the foot, though no shoes are worn, are usually prohibited; and it is not allowed to catch hold of the hair or the clothes, or to take a grip of the skin or flesh, or to twist the anns or fingers. In many places a man is not considered down until both shoulders are forced on to the ground; but a more simple rule has been introduced in other clubs and places, ol ending the round when any part of the body except the feet, knees, or hands touches the ground. Modern spectators do not much care about the recumbent style of wrestling, in which a man who is really down and underneath struggles, with very small chances of success, but with laborious and tedious efforts to keep at..

Download or read book Self Defense for Gentlemen and Ladies written by Colonel Thomas Hoyer Monstery and published by Blue Snake Books. This book was released on 2015-04-21 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 19th-century self-defense manual—written by a master swordsman—will appeal to fencers and martial artists as well as fans of Victorian-era culture, steampunk, and American history Colonel Thomas Hoyer Monstery was a master swordsman who participated in more than fifty duels, fought under twelve flags, battled gangsters, and was constantly involved in the great conflicts and upheavals of his time. In the 1870s, he began writing his magnum opus—a series of newspaper articles that are now collected here for the first time in Self-Defense for Gentleman and Ladies. In this book, Colonel Monstery presents a unique look into the Victorian-era fighting world. He describes styles such as British “purring” (shin-kicking), Welsh jump-kicking, and American rough-and-tumble fighting, in addition to providing illustrated instruction in the art of gentlemanly self-defense with a cane, staff, or one’s bare hands. Fifty rare drawings and photographs from the period illuminate Monstery’s world, while an extensive glossary of terms and an introductory biography of Colonel Monstery—including fascinating details of his many duels as well as his groundbreaking devotion to teaching fencing and self-defense skills to women—update his text to make it accessible and useful to gentlemen and ladies of any era.
