ALLANSON-WINN, INNS OF COURT SCHOOL OF ARMS, WINNER OF THE MIDDLE WEIGHTS, CAMBRIDGE, 1876-7; HEAVY WEIGHTS, 1877-8. "Mr. Winn's book is worthy of great praise, for it is at once one of the cheapest and best on the subject."--_Field._ "His (Mr. Allanson-Winn's) book gives ample testimony of his ability to write on boxing. If only for the illustrations that enable the novice to see what he should do with the gloves and what he should not do with them, the brochure is well worth the modest price charged for it."--PENDRAGON in the _Referee._ "The art of self-defence is here treated from a thoroughly practical point of view. Clear as the text is, its value is no little enhanced by the numerous and admirably executed illustrations."--_St. James's Gazette._ NEW EDITION, REVISED. _Illustrated._ WRESTLING. _Price 1s._ BY WALTER ARMSTRONG ("CROSS-BUTTOCKER"), LATE HON.

It is sufficient to say that the handbook is the work of Mr. Walter Armstrong."--_Field._ "No one is better qualified to deal with such a subject than the 'Cross-buttocker,' who for the last thirty years has been known as a clever light-weight wrestler, and whose remarks are, therefore, not mere theories, but founded on the results of long experience."--_Sporting Life._ "The handy little volume will be largely acceptable in these northern parts, where wrestling is a distinctive pastime."--_West Cumberland Times_. LONDON: G. BELL AND SONS, LTD. Transcriber's Notes: Passages in italics are indicated by _underscore_.
