Fighting Sports Description

Man is aggressive by nature. For thousands of years he has had to fight to defend himself, his family or his territory. The greatest threat, however, has always been his fellow man. The earliest men and women fought one another with their bare hands or with sticks and stones.
As time went on, weapons were developed and the martial arts became more refined.
FIGHTING SPORTS describes the way in which fighting skills were taken from the battlefield and adapted to become the modern sporting contests we know today. The book traces the history of sports which include fencing, boxing, wrestling, shooting, archery and unarmed combat. Modern techniques, Olympic eventing and famous exponents such as Annie Oakley, Muhammed Ali, Big Daddy and Bruce Lee, have all contributed to the popularity that these sports enjoy.
Graeme Kent is headmaster of St. Thomas' Primary School in Boston, Lincolnshire and Education Consultant to Yorkshire Television.
He has written many books for children.
