When I first started Bolognese a few years ago, one of the first treatise that was recommended to me was Mancillino’s Opera Nova translated by Tom Leoni. Knowing little to nothing about the art, I started at the beginning as Tom Leoni does a great job of writing a primer to the Bolognese system right there. Then I got to the first Sword and Buckler Form and was completely lost. After a couple of months I moved on to Dall’Agochhie, who has a much more straightforward pedagogy.
