About The Fencing Master
The Fencing Master is a 1988 historical novel by Spanish writer Arturo Pérez-Reverte set in Madrid, Spain in 1868. Amid the political turmoil of the Glorious Revolution where conspiracy and intrigue are commonplace, fencing master Don Jaime Astarloa tries to live as he always has. Subsisting on meager funds gained through teaching fencing to the sons of the nobility, the anachronistic Don Jaime lives by one universal code: "to be honest, or at least honorable--anything, indeed, that has its roots in the word honor."
