The HEMA Scholar: A Collection of Western Martial Arts Articles - Paperback
by Nikolai Gloeckler (Author), Carl Persson (Author), Dana Mowat (Author)
Here are several articles on Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA), including interpretations of some Masters' works, select techniques, basic curriculum, fight theory, and historical fitness techniques. Whether interested in the unarmed combat of our Western heritage, longsword, knife fighting, or general martial arts, there is something in here for all HEMA enthusiasts. Articles are written by practitioners of the art studying with The Academy of European Swordsmanship, Canada's oldest HEMA/WMA school (founded in 1994).
Johanus Haidner founded The Academy of European Swordsmanship in 1994 as a university club researching and learning the historical martial arts of Germany and England. The AES now has three chapters and founded another (The Forge WMA). Johanus also writes non-fiction, fantasy fiction, and wrote a tabletop RPG called "Mythic Hero." He is the head instructor at the Edmonton chapter of the AES and continues to practice HEMA and probably will until his body physically won't let him.
