5.0 out of 5 stars Superb, November 2, 2011
This review is from: British & Commonwealth bayonets (Hardcover)
A large, handsome, well-designed, nicely-illustrated piece of work.

This book, first published by Skennerton in 1984, was distributed in North America by I.D.S.A. and in New Zealand by Bruce Gorton. Yellow cloth over boards with black details; dustjacket; sewn binding. 2.75 pounds. 404 pp. B&w illustrations throughout: mostly photographs with some line drawings which explicate details. Indexed.

- over 1300 illustrations
- separate sections on Australia, Canada, India, New Zealand, and South Africa
- a section on fakes and reproductions with illustrated descriptions
- manufacturer production figures
- catalogue numbers
- a new identification system for varieties of early socket bayonets
- 3 Appendices

Here's the blurb: this book "introduces a considerable amount of new material and many previously unrecorded bayonets in a well-ordered sequence which is equally useful for novices, advanced collectors, students, museum staff, and dealers."
