4.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent discourse on ancient and medieval Armament,
By A Customer
This review is from: Arms And Armour In Antiquity And The Middle Ages (Medieval Military Library) (Paperback)
Some one must have liked this book. I have the 1870 edition. The author is really M. P. Lacombe with Boutell's translation. An excellent overview of the development of weapons and armor from the first stone weapons to the the early hand cannons and black powder
