2024 N & M Press reprint of 1942 original Edition. SB. 39pp.illustrated BW Published in 1942 and aimed at the Home Guard, this booklet - generously illustrated with photos of the unarmed combat tactics it describes - seeks to impart simple but effective techniques for dealing with both an armed and un-armed attacker.

Its advice ranges from the straightforward: 'If you are handy with your fists nothing can beat a good, solid punch on the jaw', to the deadly: 'A well-delivered rabbit punch just under the ears will at least dislocate the neck, and very probably break it'. This is a timeless and still extremely useful guide for defending oneself without weapons in dangerous times.This book is published strictly for historical purposes. The Naval and Military Press Ltd expressly bears no responsibility or liability of any type, to any first, second or third party, for any harm, injury or loss whatsoever. …
