DESCRIPTION
Pallas Armata was published anonymously in 1639. According to Aylward's The English Master of Arms from the Twelfth to the Twentieth Century (London, 1956), the author, identified only as "G.A." may have been Gideon Ashwell, a fellow of King's College Cambridge. The text consists of four sections, describing how to fence with rapier and sword against both right and left handers.
