| Publisher Description: All Power Fighting is the third Volume of The Broken Dance, and is the history of Pankration, of "The-All-Power-Thing" from its earliest inception in Archaic Hellas down to the death of Alexander the Great. Copiously illustrated, the lives and the methods of the ancient mixed martial arts champions are brought to vivid life. From the perspective of the fighter the martial culture of the ancient Greek warrior is examined, including the war arts of wrestling, dueling, archery, spear-throwing, stone-throwing and the pentathlon-the famed five contests. |
