German Chivalry

GERMAN CHIVALRY is a book of four exciting essays: Chivalric Arts and Fight-Books tells you what Teutonic masters of Medieval European martial arts said and taught about their noble warrior culture via their training manuals. Foundationality of Wrestling to Fencing tells you the significance of unarmed grappling combatives to swordfighting. Medieval Martial Meditation tells you about the most forsworn and forgotten aspects of knighthood, both esoteric and practical. Jörg versus Saracen at Ceuta circa 1457 tells you the climactic true story of real knightly dueling to the death during warfare. German Chivalry by Fritz Maes shall surely shock and awe even the most apathetic of academia, anachronistia, and athletica alike. It reveals a dynamic world of great deeds and high adventure. It is a daring book of scholarly vigor and manly prowess. Now you too may read it for yourself…
