Samenvatting	The author of this concise guide to unarmed combat and self-defence is a legend. W. E.

He is best known as the co-inventor of the famous Sykes-Fairbairn knife. In this book he expounds his distilled experience of unarmed combat.

The book also contains a chapter on the use of the rifle in close combat by Captain P. N. Walbridge.
