Hi Michael,
I like the last link, naturally because it mentions texts written by a Portuguese King  , in the following passage:'The King of Portugal, Dom Duarte, produced several training texts in the 1420s'. This reminds us that, also in the same website, there is a link where the same King is reported to encourage the training of fencing, namely with the historicaly famous wooden swords (wasters). http://www.thearma.org/essays/wasters.htm Fernando |

Hi Fernando,
It's good to know that there is finally one brave guardsman to watch over Portuguese history!  Michael |
