5.0 out of 5 stars
Vital for any student of European arms and armor!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Archaeology of Weapons: Arms and Armour from Prehistory to the Age of Chivalry (Hardcover)
Oakeshott presents, in very readable form, not only a wealth of information concerning European arms and armor through the ages, but excellent historical overveiws of the periods discussed which include the best 'nutshell' history of the Migration Era and Viking era that it has ever been my pleasure to read. Any serious student of arms and armor must read this book. The author's style of writing is unusually engaging and informative, and much more readable than the normal run of dry English historical books. He has the ability to bring history alive in your heart, as it so obviously is alive for him.
