Stephen!

Good to hear from you.

I must admit that your 19th C. pugilism class at Cumann Bhata WMA
Seminar helped convince me that there was, indeed, interest in the
subject of Pugilistic Grappling and that I should just get on with it
and write the darn book. So, I owe you a thank you.

I'm glad you liked the book and the re-publications.

I'm currently working on republishing Corbett's _Scientific Boxing_
manual. It is absolutely *LOADED* with photographs. I think it's going
to be a real fun one (though he doesn't like Cold Water Dousing - I'm
not sure I can forgive him. ;-)

Should be done with it in a week or two. I shouldn't make any promises.
I've already missed one self-appointed dead-line on it. Serves me
right, really. I always seem to underestimate how long it will take me
to re-pub a manual. :P

Peace favor your sword,
Kirk
