My book on Vadi's manuscript De Arte Gladiatoria Dimicandi is available now as The Art of Sword Fighting in Earnest.

As with my first attempt at translating this manuscript I have released the translation for free, under a creative commons attribution 4.0 licence. This means you can do whatever you want with it, provided you give me credit for doing the work.

The rest of the book includes a detailed introduction, a practical commentary, and a glossary.

You can find the free translation here: https://gum.co/sXBJh

I'm making it available through my Gumroad account rather than a direct download because that way generous souls can pay something for it if they wish.
