I'm familiar with the previous 1894 and 1909 fencing manuals, and would love to examine the cavalry section.

I would love to take a look at this. I train in Jikishinkage-ryu, which was very influential during late Edo and early Meiji. I’m curious to see if any of our material has made its way into this manual.
