German Medieval Combat Books

If you are interested in building up your knowledge of the German Medieval Martial Arts tradition, these books are a great place to start to build your library. A lot of Medieval Combat training is reading… While there is no substitute for actual training, these books can help give you some context to the systems we use.
Medieval Combat: A Fifteenth-Century Manual of Swordfighting and Close-Quarter Combat
The Art of Swordsmanship by Hans Lecküchner
Dagger Fighting
Captain of the Guild: Master Peter Falkner’s Art of Knightly Defense
In Saint George’s Name: An Anthology of Medieval German Fighting Arts
And while I know this next book suggestion is expensive, it really should be a must read for anyone studying 14th or 15th century German Martial Arts
The Martial Ethic in Early Modern Germany: Civic Duty and the Right of Arms
