A book of boxing by one of the nineteenth-century stars, celebrating the 175th anniversary of The London Library. Ned Donnelly, a former prize fighter turned boxing instructor and author (with a lot of help from his literate friends), was a household name as a one of the most successful, famous, and respected instructors in the history of British boxing. This delightful book - more than an instruction manual, more than an amusing pastime - captures the fighting style from a crucial moment in boxing history right after the Prize Ring had become extinct. With a detailed clarity of expression, and accompanied by charming illustrations of a slightly paunchy boxer, it is a fascinating insight to the man who trained George Bernard Shaw. The books in "Found on the Shelves" have been chosen to give a fascinating insight into the treasures that can be found while browsing in The London Library. Now celebrating its 175th anniversary, with over seventeen miles of shelving and more than a million books, The London Library has become an unrivalled archive of the modes, manners and thoughts of each generation which has helped to form it. From essays on dieting in the 1860s to instructions for gentlewomen on trout-fishing, from advice on the ill health caused by the "modern" craze of bicycling to travelogues from Norway, they are as readable and relevant today as they were more than a century ago.

The untutored combats of boys are absurd parodies; and in many a remote place the clubs, where so-called boxing takes place, produce local champions who are disfigured by almost every fault that can make them ridiculous. A bad style is in this matter, as in most others, very difficult to get rid of; and it is very rare to find a boxer of any pretensions who has not learnt early in a good school. A new chance has been afforded by the publication of this hand-book. To the attentive study of this treatise every beginner may be confidently recommended, especially if there is no chance of attending the 'lectures' of a really competent mentor.

All the tools necessary to build a powerful defensive base for boxing—every defense for every punch from every angle—are included in this manual. Punching prowess has become equated with boxing, but what is done in response to that incoming flurry makes a truly good boxer: how to make an opponent miss, how to easily defend, and, most importantly, how to counterattack. Building on that defensive base, this book explores natural punching triggers, or logical counterpunching sequences, that move past the beginner’s realm of being a mere puncher into the upper echelons of crafty counter boxing. With encyclopedic boxing defensive drills bolstered by numerous illustrative photographs, this is a one-stop resource for learning the art of counterpunching.

Originally written in 1889, the "Doran's Science of Self-Defense" was one of the first of its kind. A training manual intent on conveying the art of boxing, physical fitness knowledge, and the power of sport to the general public. Written by Bart J. Doran, an early advocate of boxing and physical fitness, the book concentrates on conveying information for the beginning boxing enthusiast. Along with over 30 illustrations, techniques ranging from footwork to "back-heeling" are covered. A great historical reference and a valuable addition to any library concerned with the history of boxing and martial arts. From Doran's Science of Self-Defense: "By delivering your blow lightly upon the point desired, while avoiding the counter-blow of your opponent, you convince him of your superior ability quite as strongly, and leave a much better impression in the minds of spectators."
