Description

A tongue-in-cheek guide on how to be manly according to the annals of history. The contents include day-to-day skills such as how to besiege a castle, fire a longbow, correctly clean a maxim machine gun and capture an enemy trench; sporting sciences such as jousting, fencing and boxing (Queensbury Rules, of course); and domestic essentials such as how to hunt, kill, clean and cook a wild boar. Airmen and soldiers, knights and pages, gentlemen and rogues: to you we say pip pip, and what what! Stiffen your lip and tighten your sword belt! Tie down your trebuchets, wax your moustache, and delve into this manliest of manuals. AUTHOR: Chris McNab is a writer and editor who specialises in military history and technology. He has published more than 30 books, including 'The Great Book of Guns'; 'How to Survive Anything, Anywhere'; 'The Illustrated History of the Vietnam War'; 'Modern Military Uniforms'; 'The SAS Mental Endurance Handbook'; and 'Special Forces Survival Guide'. 100 b/w illustrations
