Uncommon first edition of a classic on the martial art. Alfred Hutton devoted all his adult life to fencing and the research of the use of bladed weapons, historically and in the 19th century. 'He promoted the beginning of national championships for men from 1898 and for women from 1907. When English fencers first participated in the international cup (at Paris in 1903), he was on the jury. In 1909 he became fencing delegate to the British Olympic Council' (ODNB). He bequeathed his exquisite collection of fencing literature and some rare specimens of bladed weapons to the Victoria and Albert Museum.
