Brian R. Price
Brian R. Price is an American university professor,[1] author, editor, publisher, martial arts instructor of the Italian school of swordsmanship, reconstructive armorer, and member of the Society for Creative Anachronism. He is Assistant Professor of History at Hawai'i Pacific University, where he offers courses in the history of warfare, in counterinsurgency, and in strategy at the graduate and undergraduate levels, leveraging his long study of medieval topics and his recent experience in Afghanistan as an advisor. He speaks regularly at conferences both for his current field on counterinsurgency and in his earlier, and now secondary field, on chivalric topics. He began his independent studies in 1990, but began to shift his interests as the Afghan and Iraq wars progressed, increasingly emphasizing aspects of modern military theory, especially ways through which culture, doctrine and military practice interweave. This remains the center of his research agenda today. Recently he has spoken at the UK Ministry of Defence, appeared on television to discuss the situation in Ukraine, and given a paper at the World History Conference.
Price is perhaps best known for his work, Techniques of Medieval Armour Reproduction, which has been favorably reviewed and sold more than 20,000 copies worldwide. It was cited more than 35 times in the recent 2013 Ph.D. Dissertation by Nikolaus Dupras. ".[2] Dupras writes, "Techniques of Medieval Armour Reproduction is one of the most complete accounts written on the armourer’s art. Geared heavily towards technique, it is intended as a manual which discusses the steps of armour-making from design to fabrication. Though not comprehensive, the complexity of the task is well represented."
Price originally founded The Chivalry Bookshelf in 1992 to publish Chronique, the Journal of Chivalry,[3] but eventually began publishing books about Western Martial Arts, arms and armor, and the subject of chivalry.[4] The press produced twenty-six titles between 2001 and 2010, when Price suspended operations in order to prepare for deployment to Afghanistan. He and his wife Ann also jointly ran Revival Enterprises during the same period, which developed a popular line of leather and sundries for re-enactment and Western martial arts practitioners.
Previously he co-founded the American Company of Saint George, a medieval-styled "tournament society" that, together with Chronique: The Journal of Chivalry, helped to inspire many other similar tournament societies throughout North America, in Europe and in Australia. Price is a co-founder and, until early 2011, was the long-time curriculum director of the Schola Saint George school of Historical European martial arts.[5] Currently he teaches swordsmanship in Honolulu and remains affiliated with the Schola Saint George.
Background
In 2015 he was named to the Board of Directors of the Pacific Submariner's Memorial Association, the 501.c(3) non-profit that caretakes the U.S.S. Bowfin museum at the Pearl Harbor Museum Complex. In October of that year he was also named as a Trustee for the Hawai'i Army Museum Society, which works to maintain and improve the DeRussey Army Museum in Waikiki.
From 2012 he has taught graduate and undergraduate courses within Hawai'i Pacific University's Diplomacy & Military Studies Program,[6] where he offers courses on graduate historical methods, counterinsurgency, strategy, and American military history, alongside undergraduate courses in the history of warfare, American military history, and the modern history of science and technology.[7] Beginning in 2015 he served as the Chair of the College of Liberal Arts Faculty Assembly, and in 2014-15 as the Chair, General Education Curriculum & Assessment Committee, as well as on a large number of other committees at the University and College level.
In 2011-12 he served in Afghanistan as a senior socio-cultural advisor for the Human Terrain System, working with NATO, American and Afghan forces. His work there focused on the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF), their internal dynamics and their relationship to American and NATO forces as related to counterinsurgency theory and practice. He made use of local and oral history techniques in his unique approach and gathered oral histories on ANSF officers and civilians.
Price graduated from the University of California, Los Angeles with a B.A. in Political Science/Economics in 1990, and in 2006 entered the University of North Texas to pursue a doctorate in history. He won a competitive dissertation fellowship in 2010, completing his degree in May, 2011. He taught courses there in U.S. and world history as a Teaching Fellow from 2008 to 2010.[8][9][10]
Price had previously operated an armour workshop, Thornbird Arms, from 1984 to 1990,[11][12] and worked in the computer software, information technology and internet industries from 1993 to 2000.[13]
Western Martial Arts
Beginning about 1981,[14] Price's exposure to the Western Martial Arts developed through his participation in armored full-contact sport combat through the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) in Southern California, in which he participated under the SCA pseudonym of Brion Thornbird ap Rhys, eventually rising to the rank of King of the Kingdom of Caid in 1988.[15][16][17] In 1984, Price founded a small armory, Thornbird Arms, directed at the SCA's market for functional historically accurate armor, which he operated until 1990.[18] In recognition of his expertise in "armouring" and his research into the historical combat system of Fiore dei Liberi, the SCA kingdom of Ansteorra elevated Price to its "Order of the Laurel" in 1986[19] and, in 1987, he was elevated to the SCA's "Order of the Chivalry" (KSCA) for his skill in SCA Armored Combat by the reigning King and Queen of the Kingdom of Caid.[20] Price was awarded the "Queen's Cypher" and the "Princess's Favor" in 1992 by the Kingdom of the West, the "Queen's Guard – Knight Counselor" in 1998, as well as the "Defender of the West" in 2000.[21][22] Price is also a warranted Armored Combat Authorizing Marshal "At Large" of the Kingdom of Ansteorra.[23][24]
In addition to producing historically accurate armor for SCA members, Price wrote the instruction book Techniques of Medieval Armour Reproduction.[25] This book remains the most popular introduction to the field and has provided a springboard from which a generation of armourers working in the medieval style have emerged.
In the 1990s, Price was also instrumental in establishing the Company of Saint George, a "Tournament Company" within the SCA dedicated to staging historically accurate tournaments and pas d'armes in an SCA context.[26] In 2000, a part of the Company of Saint George developed into the Schola Saint George school of Western Martial Arts,[27] co-founded by Price and Robert Holland in Union City, California.[28] Price directed the Schola Saint George, expanding it to Texas and other regions of the United States and abroad. Currently the SSG has branches in Dallas, Atlanta, Charleston, Boston, Little Rock, Moscow, Latvia, in the San Francisco Bay Area, and in Honolulu.
Under Price's impetus, the Schola Saint George organized the first annual Schola Saint George Medieval Swordsmanship Symposium in May, 2001. It was one of the first conferences in the United States dedicated to bringing together scholars and practitioners of the Historical European Martial Arts, and the largest of its kind up to that time.[29]
In 2004, Price was inducted into the United States Martial Arts Hall of Fame as a Medieval Weapons Master.[30] He is also a member of the American Teachers Association of the Martial Arts.[31]
In Afghanistan he won letters of commendation for his service to both NATO and American units.
Writing, editing and publishing
Price's early work included The Book of the Tournament,[32] Historical Forms of the Tournament for SCA Combat: History, Resources, Examples,[33] and Arming Yourself in the Style of the 14th Century,[34] were written principally for the Society for Creative Anachronism (sometimes under his SCA pseudonym "Sir Brion Thornbird"[35][36]) and were sometimes published by the SCA as well.[37]
In 1996 or 1997, Price also contributed two articles, "On Chivalric Virtues" and "Winning and Losing," to Facets of Knighthood, an anthology of poetry, stories and articles concerning knighthood and chivalry edited by a fellow SCA member, "Cormac the Traveller" (a/k/a Peter Martin), and published by Outlaw Press.[38][39]
Price republished and expanded his 1991 monograph, The Book of the Tournament, as a book under his The Chivalry Bookshelf imprint in 1996[40] and, again, in 2002.[41]
In 1999, as a monograph, and, in 2001, as a book, Price published his "translation into modern English" of Ramon Lull's Book of Knighthood & Chivalry, which became widely used as a textbook.[42][43] The book was republished again in 2002 as a paperback by The Chivalry Bookshelf and Boydell & Brewer[44] and again in 2004 by The Chivalry Bookshelf and Greenhill Press.[45]
Price'sTechniques of Medieval Armour Reproduction, was published by Paladin Press in 2000.[46]
In 2001, Price published the first U.S. edition of Bengt Thordeman's 1939–1940 two-volume Armour from the Battle of Wisby, 1361 as a single volume,[47][48] and Secrets of German Medieval Swordsmanship: Sigmund Ringeck's Commentaries on Johannes Liechtenauer's Verse, translated and interpreted by Christian Henry Tobler.[49]

In May, 2011, his dissertation, The Martial Arts of Medieval Europe, was accepted by the University of North Texas Department of History and is currently in revision for publication by an undisclosed press.
In 2011, a group of authors led a former editor, in establishing their own competing press, alleged that the Chivalry Bookshelf had not paid royalties in some time. These allegations were subject to legal challenge while Dr. Price was serving in Afghanistan, but were settled out of court in 2012.
Between 2011-2012, he wrote more than seventy classified and unclassified analyses reports on topics relating to counterinsurgency efforts in Afghanistan.
In June, 2015, two articles were published. ″A Proposed Methodology for the Validation of Historical European Martial Arts Reconstructions," [89] and "The Poleaxe and the Changing Face of Warfare," [90]
