Boxing for beginners: with chapter showing its relationship to bayonet fighting
By William J. Jacomb
I posted the bayonet chapter before, but I found the complete book on books.google.com. You'll find that the quality of the pictures are much better in this copy.

If you hear a voice within you saying that I am not a painter, then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced.

Re: Boxing History and Ring Science - Free eBooks
Is there a way to get "Rocky Marciano's Book of Boxing & Bodybuilding" (Prentice-Hall Pub. - 1957) on "E-Book"?
Thanks!

Hey Bill, what you see is what I got.
The only way that Marciano book is going to become an ebook is that someone's going to have to get their hands on that book and then scan it. There's currently a collector on the cyberboxingzone that has it and is charging $75 for the book.
In case you're interested here are some of Rocky's boxing tips:
Rocky Marciano's thoughts on boxing
1. The left jab
• It keeps an adversary off balance and sets him up for such power punches as the right cross and left hook.
2. The right cross
• Requires perfect timing and coordination
• Gauge your distance correctly
• The three "S's" of a correct hand [technique]: straight, snappy, short
3. The left hook
a. A short, fast hook is best
b. Starts from the feet up
• Pivoting on ball of left foot
• Turn your body toward the right
• Push your hips up
• Snap shoulder into punch
• Left knee goes inside toward right knee, and the left heel goes outward
