First published in Paris in 1881, this small treatise on the art of Spanish knife fighting has been out of print for almost 150 years. The present edition contains the original text written by Baron Charles Davillier, supplemented with additional historical footnotes by Maestro James Loriega, a world-acknowledged authority on this little-known art.
