The skilled boxer is a fighter to be reckoned with, and good punching technique a very effective way of defeating an aggressor. Punching is not just a matter of using an arm to best effect; a good punch uses the whole body to put weight behind the strike.
How to Punch offers expert advice on both punching effectively and dealing with an opponent’s punches. This concise guide includes advice on targets and effects; stance and movement; strking the head and body; straight punches, hooks and crosses; uppercuts and hammerfists; cover defences and deflections; and evasions and counterattacks. Written in easy-to-understand steps and accompanied by clear illustrations, How to Punch teaches realistic punching techniques that can be learned and applied by the layman.

A former defence consultant, he has written numerous books on history and military history, including Vikings: A History of the Norse People, The Wars of the Roses, King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, and Kings & Queens of the Medieval World.
