This book is featured on Gary Venable's list: Records of the Medieval Sword by Ewart Oakeshott ![]() Forty years of intensive research into the specialised subject of the straight two-edged knightly sword of the European middle ages are contained in this study. ...
* RECOMMENDED * A must have for anyone's library who is interested in the middle ages. The book adds and refines the Oakeshott typology to its final position. The book gives a very rich picture of the swords used from the end of the viking age into te Renaissance. It has wonderful pictures and digrams. Again this would be a staple for a collector/enjoyer of the knightly sword. Updated Dec 19, 2005 |
