Zustand: New. 2008 N & M Press reprint of 1845 original edition. SB. 46pp IllustratedPublished Price £4.50 Issued by the Horse Guards in January 1845, The Infantry Sword Exercise established the officially approved system for sword instruction among British infantry officers and sergeants. Derived from earlier methods developed by the Angelo family, notably Henry Angelo's 1817 system, it provided a standardised approach to practical swordsmanship on foot.The manual sets out the fundamental 'seven cuts and three points', together with the correct execution of guards, parries and lunges, placing particular emphasis on sound posture, balance and controlled movement. Its systematic treatment was intended to ensure consistency in instruction and proficiency throughout the infantry.The 1845 revision subsequently became the British Army's standard reference for sword exercise on foot for approximately half a century. Its influence extended beyond the military, with the system later providing a model for drill manuals used in the training of police constables. As both an official training text and a record of Victorian military practice, it offers a valuable insight into the formal development of British swordsmanship. Book.…

Zustand: New. 2008 N & M Press reprint of 1857 original Edition . SB. 39pp Illustrated Angelo's Bayonet Exercises, 1857 is an official British military instruction manual written by Henry Charles Angelo, Superintendent of Sword Exercise at the Horse Guards. Published by authority in July 1857, shortly after the Crimean War and at the outbreak of the Indian Mutiny, this concise 39-page work was intended to standardise bayonet instruction throughout the Victorian Army.Designed for troops armed with the muzzle-loading rifle-musket and socket bayonet, Angelo's system applied established principles of fencing and swordsmanship to practical infantry combat. Movements were deliberately simple, controlled and taught 'by numbers', enabling instructors to impose uniformity in training.The manual progresses from the fundamental guard position through offensive points and defensive movements, including high, low and short guards. These techniques were intended to prepare soldiers for different battlefield situations, from confronting infantry at close quarters to defending against cavalry.Detailed illustrations demonstrate the correct positions and movements, making the manual an important contemporary record of mid-Victorian infantry training. Today it remains a valuable reference for military historians, collectors, historical re-enactors and students of nineteenth-century martial practice. Book. …

Zustand: New. 2008 N & M Press reprint of 1856 original edition. SB. 60pp + 17 plates. Published in 1856, at the time of the Crimean War and the Indian Mutiny, this is the official manual on musketry training and tactics used in British infantry units. The book includes sections on the duties of musketry instructors; drill; and the manufacture of cartridges (this latter section is particularly interesting in that it specifies that the paper cartridges should be greased in a mixture of tallow candle wax and bees' wax; rather than the animal fats, rumours of which offended Hindu and Muslim sepoys alike, and were a major contributing cause of the Mutiny). There are chapters on file and volley firing; skirmishing; target practice and judging distance. With well executed drawings and diagrams. Book.…
