The translation was fine. My only issue was its format - I prefer the format used by Tom Leoni in his translation of Giganti's first book - in Leoni's book; the relevant plates were on the same page as the text as were the footnotes. In this book; plates were on separate pages and the notes were at the back of the book - necessitating flipping back and forth.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Lost and FoundBy Frank E. PerryI was going to give it 5 stars but gave it 4. The book is excellent but alas the artist who he used for the illustrations wasn't as good as the artist of his first book. At the time; he seems to have been an instructor at the Order of Santo Stefano so maybe he used someone there to do the art work. But though the art isn't up to it the content is. It includes sections on sword with rotella; targa; cape; and buckler as well as sword and dagger. He also covers dagger vs. dagger; sword and spear.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
