    Default Reproduced 1879 Antique boxing manual.

    ==================
    I am pleased to announce that I have republished Frank Tousey's "How To Box"

    As always, the PDF download is free.

    http://www.lulu.com/product/paperbac...o-box/16344365

    Frank Tousey, a Publisher of chap book Dime Novels, in 1882 plagiarized Ned Donnelly's "The Art of Boxing" of 1879, attributing it only to "A Professional Boxer."

    Tousey's own marketing copy read: "The art of self-defense made easy. Containing over thirty illustrations of guards, blows and different positions of a good boxer. Every boy should obtain one of these useful and instructive books, as it will teach you how to box with-out an instructor."

    Peace favor your sword,
    Kirk

    And cobwebs too,cant forget the garnishing.

    But its not mine Missy.

    That guy Kirk asked me if i could post it for him somewhere.
    I then remembered people can no longer post links without being substantial members and have so many posts to their names.
