The Inner Game of Fencing: Excellence in Form, Technique, Strategy and Spirit.

In this book, veteran instructor and author Nick Evangelista shows that the mind of the fencer is the critical tool and that no matter how good your technical skills are, if you don't know how to apply them effectively and efficiently, you will never grow beyond a simple poker. Evangelista covers all aspects of the inner game of fencing: how strategy is formed on the fencing strip, why self-discipline is vital, how important winning is to the learning process, why emotional input ruins your game, and how to take an opponent's strengths and turn them against him or her.
Evangelista explains how through self-discipline, continuous learning, and practice, you can take your fencing skills to a whole new level of performance.
